The setup is from GZ motorsports along with all the parts. I didn't buy the kit though I made my own. Here's a parts list. There are other ways to do it but this is what I did.
GZ Motorsports Modified Kit
-vp104 race pump
-upgrade pump to include relief valve
-crank mandrel kit cm200b
-crank mandrel pulley cmpg 250
-vppg401 pump pulley
-universal pump head mount (passenger side)
-vacuum pump I series belt 36.7"
-spacer kit
-catch can of some sort (I used my Mighty Mouse one I already had)
-plumbing (multiple ways to do this too, I used 10an ptfe black wrap line from tech afx, I ran that from the pump to a Y to 2 10an hoses to each valve cover. I installed a fitting in the rear of both valve covers for this)
I decided to use the crank mandrel driven pump because I deleted my tensioner also. This car only has a belt going from crank to alternator and crank to vacuum pump

Thanks for all the info. I'm gonna run a vp on the new engine, your setup looks very nice
So got the car fired up finally so I figured I'd drop a teaser vid in here. Very close to driving it. Dyno is set up for the 24th. I'll post up graphs/vids in here and probably start a dyno thread also. Still quite a bit of tuning to do the next couple weeks and then hopefully the tuner can finish everything off. Then I'll be at the track that weekend to back up results and will be hitting the track quite a bit after that. Should have some fun this season
Thanks! It needs some TLC still but I want to get it running and driving. Then have some fun with it and get it to the painter. Needs to be touched up bad.
Sweet to see it up and running, staying tuned for dyno and track results!
Thanks man. Be nice to see a few cars come together here soon. Getting ready to bleed the clutch and do some alignment stuff. Might be able to drive it today or tomorrow if I don't run into any hiccups.
Ok. I think it's safe to revive this thread now. I had a mishap a few days after startup. Something electrical shorted out and caused a fire. Sucked. Decided to rip some more stuff out of the car because the hvac blower got melted and my first MSD took quite a beating. So now this is my second Mamo Ported MSD. I decided to upgrade a few things in the process just because it made me feel better about having to do all the work a second time. I upgraded to 2" kooks headers after seeing some results around on tech, deleted my second fuel system for nitrous and just teed off my main fuel system (it's plenty big). And I did a modified Chris1313 CAI setup with a filter and a new custom rad with fans. Upgraded my coil overs also and dropped quite a bit of weight.
Bottom side of my oem WS6 hood bubbled the paint from the fire so I took my old hood from my other car to use.
New 2" Kooks (instead of 1 7/8)
New custom radiator, shroud and Spal fans from Bell Intercoolers
Installed in the core support area. I deleted my stock hood latch for my CAI and installed aerolatches. No more wiper fluid tank either but I can relocate it if I want it back. I don't have AC either but if you wanted to do this setup with AC you could. Bell will make a condenser/rad combo whatever size you want.
Tons of room behind the radiator now and just looks a lot cleaner
Pic of the new CAI setup and new custom rad setup. I had a box made for an air filter too for running on the street. I'm not sure what most guys do but it should work find and I'll pull it at the track. The top is held on with zip ties for now yes lol. But I have a fix for that in the works now.
Better pic of everything
Aerolatches installed
Pic of the velocity stack. I need to take the bumper and hood to get painted after I get it running and to the dyno. It's done now except I'm waiting on some coolant tubing to come back from being welded and I have to finish some interior wiring and bleed the clutch and brakes.
Dyno is scheduled for the end of January so I'll keep you guys posted. We'll see how the MSD does on my 383.
