I knew the 383 would be just FINE

Anyway the injectors are 75lb. Right now I have the racetronics fuel pump and BAP. It's not cutting it. So it's tuned on 11lbs right now so I can drive it before the snow comes

My car has been in on shop or another since JUNE)

It goes bacl to FLP on Nov. 13th for the custom fuel system, rails ect. I also did a targa conversion this summer as well.

Take care
Gary

Do you have a FM FPR in there?

No I don't. I could have just did the return line,rails and FPR on the rails, but with the chance of the power to go above 800rwhp I just wanted to not have Limits on the fuel system. That be said It might have worked just don't want to pay for labor twice, I mean three time now.

Just so you know that is a log style. They use a tubular pipe but they all run into a "log" instead of snaking down into a collector. It looks like a nice fit tho

It must feel great.

Need some more under the car pics from further up front. I cant even see any induction tubes for the turbos

Nice setup man, reminds me alot about the old Tony DeQuick CAS twin turbo vette setup.

I'll have to get more pictures when I take it in to get the fuel system done.I don't have a lift. They are hidden real well

As far as the log, I guess I understand but, all the head pipes come together at the turbo vs going into a log that the turbo is conected too. (if you understand what I mean)

You can see by your pictures that the center two cylinder pipes acctually go into the outer two primaries, and not to the turbo flange. Its not a traditional manifold style "log", the turbo is just in the center.

Exactly what I was thinking. Click the link below for pics from Breathless Performance. It's the CAS kit. http://www.breathlessperformance.com...ts/500-101.asp

Not exactly. The CAS/Breathless kit is not even avaliable as far as I know, as Tony is no where to be found. This is something we started working on with Tony(anyone knows where to find him, please let me know), when he vanished, I had to finish and re-make just about everything. The only things that are the same now are the radiator, intercooler and intake duct. The CAS kit would have been really nice if any of it had fit or been worth the metal it was made out of, but that's another story. That is why we don't offer a "kit". Each one will be hand made on that particular car. Cars and customers needs are different, it's just easier to do them one at a time. The one we are working on now already has a different radiator/intercooler combo as there were some things I wanted to change from the originals.
