Thanks!!! I think its the best way running twin gates. Haven't really decided on a level yet just going to see where it goes with pump gas. Then once I get some e85 in it I would like to say 20+psi. Will be able to tell once we start tuning this beast!!

You ever need anything welded send it on over. We are looking into starting something up this spring. He didnt even use any amperage control, no foot pedal or reostat on the butt welds!

How am I supposed to get better if I send all of my stuff away for welding

As long as the placement is right you won't have a problem at all. Ill be running e85 also just want to see how she does on pump for now. But I've got a set of 120lb injectors for when I'm ready to go with corn

I'm looking around for intakes in case the ls6 doesn't cut it. I want the Holley but its too tall for the stock ss hood. I have heard mixed reviews on the Edelbrock pro-Flo XT that's the one I was leaning towards but what's better the XT or the Victor JR?
