Am I getting this correct?
Do you have a Bill Of Matterials on this kit?
I thought the above was all I needed to allow up to 540 WHP?

Sorry for the repost..............I'm not able to keep up with all of the questions on this thread.
Installing a single fuel pump into the stock F body fuel pick up unit is quite difficult to do (not impossible just time consuming and you need to be very careful not to break any of the original plastic parts in the fuel unit), for that reason I recommend using the APS drop in twin fuel pump system. This way you have instant fuel supply for around 600 rwhp with a set of 60 lb injectors and up to 1000 rwhp fuel supply if you replace the fuel line and fuel rails.

Where does the w/w reservoir go? I'm not sure how the plumbing will work out with the meth kit I have since the w/w tank that comes with the kit comes with fittings on it to connect to the pump.

Peter,
Concerning your fuel system:
Since both pumps will be running full speed, all the time, do you expect to have any problems with:
Fuel "warming" at low fuel levels; due to the excessive recirculation rate during low fuel demand periods (ie running around in the pits, waiting to approach burnout box, sitting in the drive through line at Wendy's, etc)
Fuel pump life; How long do you think these pumps will last? What would be involved in replacing the pumps if one failed?
The reason I ask; I was originally planning to go with a Aeromotive (A-1000), MagnaFuel 4302, or equivalent size pump; with a "Dial-a-Flow" fuel pump controller. This would allow the capacity needed under full throttle runs at the track or elsewhere, but the convenience of being able to turn the fuel pump down under everyday cruising.....to save pump life.
Just some thoughts.
Very Nice Price by the way!!

Which turbos is the F-Body getting? The C5 Vette, GTO, C6 Vette, or C6Z06 Vette turbos?

Guys, Here's the latest link to the F body twin turbo install instructions, there's still a few areas that need final proof reading by engineering so don't take these intructions as being absolute final install instructions, enjoy!

Peter I know you said there were more pictures to be added and it needed to be checked for typos, but I wanted to make sure and ask a few questions since I will be installing this kit myself.
1. Will there be measurements of the cuts made on steps 182, 182a, 181, 181a, 166b, 166, 158. I'm sure there are more, and I'm sure you guys are gonna get it all, but I wanted to make it a point that I hope those measurements are covered.
2. step 154 states to reinstall coil packs and spark plug leads, there is no previous steps stating that the coil packs must be removed.
3. I hope for more detailed pictures of the routing of the vacuum, and vacuum sensing hoses. Especially the breather hoses routing from steps 152 and 153.
4. In step 151 it says the breather hoses must criss cross, is there any way that a picture can be taken to show what they mean, does this mean that the LHS breather hose and the RHS breather hose will cross over each other to opposite sides of the engine and go to the other side? Ie... LHS breather hose from the rear of the engine to the RHS of the engine routed to the RHS BOV, and the RHS breather hose running to the left side of the engine and routed to the LHS BOV?
This just didnt make sense to me.
I appreciate all that you guys do and I know these items will be addressed.
Thanks Peter,
Filbert
