How much clearance is between the windshield and the top of the intake? Im planning on running the same intake. But just concerned about the engine torquing up and theintake hitting the windshield and possibly cracking it.

It made no boost first time on the dyno as the boost controller wasn't wired in right. It's fixed now and makes boost but hasn't been back on the dyno just yet.
I'm pretty sure there's plenty of clearance. We are going to put solid motor mounts to keep the engine from doing exactly what you have brought up.

Well we didn't make TX2K this year. Couldn't get the car tuned as the tuner had a full schedule. But the car is completely done now. Looking for a 12 Bolt and will be putting a cage in the car in the next few weeks.
Here's a few pics as she sits now.

Griffin radiator and ill have to look at the fans. I forgot what brand they are. Supposed to push a ton of air so we shall see.
I bought the whole fuel system in a package deal. I think the tank is around $400, maybe more depending on options you want with the tank.
