I live in the poconos and i would love to see this car sometime whether its at the island or in allentown. Mt tattooist is in allentown so I go down that way every once and awhile.
I have been contemplating doing a build like this.

Lol @magnafuel being big money to that one guy earlier.....its not that much $$ I think I payed 700 for that pump and a magnafuel 1:1 reg. It is nice knowing you prolly won't ever need another pump upgrade as long as your on 93 or race gas and a lsx motor.
Bump it up to a BBC and some corn and yeah you'll need two haha. But for now ur good. I bought the same pump for my stock ls1 build, I said **** it might as well.

It is peanuts for a good pump. You can't hardly over build your fuel system especially on E85.

It is peanuts for a good pump. You half a$$ your fuel system, kill your junkyard engine you are so proud off because you did it so cheap, and you now look like a dumba$$ because for the cost of another jy engine you could have had a pump. Only now you need both. You can't hardly over build your fuel system especially on E85.

You misunderstood my post. Denmah and guys like him (skinnies) are not trying to kill jy engines. And the reason these guys have success at using them is because they use good supporting parts with them. Denmah is using a badass fuel pump. Someone remarked a few posts back that they we're $$$. I just agreed that you can't skimp on the necessary things like fuel delivery. Skinnies does the same thing. Good supporting parts! This is the key. These guys both (and others) spend hours tuning themselves to get these combos to work. I got denmah's back on this build especially on the fuel pump and turbo because I want to see what it does. I will now edit my original post so the skim readers don't miss the point.

When I first searched it I thought it was $700 for the pump alone.

Wow I just spent two days reading this thread. Of course I had to stop halfway thru to read the entire thread on the bullet. I can't believe how many of those guys just didn't get it. Guess most of them forgot that in the early days of hot rodding this is what it was all about, getting it done without an aftermarket. Anyway thanks for the inspiration to get mine moving instead of waiting to spend money on shiny parts.
They say " **** the haters". I say, why bother, they'll probably just tell you you're doing it wrong.
