Details will follow shortly. We plan on doing a detailed thread on the build. As soon as MADMAN is done working his magic on the chassis, the build will begin. I am finishing a twim 67 mm build right now, then I am doing a C5 with twin 78mm. Then the twin gt4788 build. Lets just say I am going to be busy for a long while. The lsx shootout will be fun this year

I am not sure if the red aeromotive mechanical pump will be enough, you might need to step up to the big black one

That pump flows 2700 lbs an hour of fuel and if you take that and divide it by .63 (the general brake specific fuel consumption for a forced induction application) that comes out to roughly 4285 hp. Now that would be in a perfect world, and I know we're not but it should be good enough to supply all 16 165 pound an hour injectors.
