Looks to be the best electric pump on the market or at least on par with the best. The cable drive does look fantastic but I didnt find any kits and have no idea the cost. If any of you other guys have decent info I started a thread on cable pumps in this section recently and your comments would be appreciated.

PSJ how goes the rest of the build? Anything else you need to source or is it a matter of assembly now?

Yeah I picked up the 2345, I plan to run it like how Nathan Shaw has his, 2345 + other Walbro pump. The 2345 comes on with some boost, and he does not run a Weldon voltage regulator for the pump.

I still need to buy intake, throttle body, and EFI. I will get intake and tb next week.

Manna is not quite open yet for me.

Let's be serious here for a minute, John. What street are you actually going to drive this car on? And I think it's especially hilarious that you think you're going to street drive it enough to run an A2A intercooler. Why not just go A2W off the bat? Especially if you wanna go record chasing?

Street cruising, lol. A bright yellow 60's Camaro, with the exhaust sticking out the hood. A word to the wise, but all the old timers on CPD that would let you get away with that kind of hijinks are LONG retired. I know your 2010 flies under the radar a bit, but this is really gonna be asking for it. Just wait til you run into your first female affirmative action hire that owns a Prius! She'll try to make sure they lock you up under Cook County!

All kidding aside, it's a cool build, and I'm still in the old neighborhood-ish area if you need a hand at the track.

Haha wassup Tom. At this point not doing exhaust through the hood, probably route a pipe to just behind the passenger side tire.

On E85 this car will be green approved. Combine that with repurposing such an old heap vs wasted energy for a new one and this is one green clean toy

Some cruising around town to improve family morale is a good thing, and anyone who tries to attack that? aint doing life right. Let the good times roll

Look forward to how hard you push the S485, at 3100lbs it should fly! The S484 would easily run 8's at 3500+lbs.

Also looking forward to how the new S488 and S491's perform in other builds.

Awesom build! I’ve read through the thread and didn’t see what size cross over pipe you plan on using or what the set up will be (truck manifolds or turbo headers etc.) any idea yet?

I appreciate it..... I have a 68 Camaro 6.0 with an s480 but with small t6 1.10 83mm turbine..... had a 78/75 last year.... got an absolute steal on the s480.... currently redoing hotside now and I’m in a debate in my head what size the hotside needs to be.... trying to get manifolds down and forward with truck accessories/power steering is a task with anything larger than 2 inch....
