Ok so I am going to use the ls2 valley cover. I am also going to do a catch can set up would it hurt to use the pcv line on the valve cover and the one on the valley cover?

This is the route I'm heading for. Assuming, that the fitting on the tray, isn't in the way of anything.

Yeah thats what I was thinking IDK if the box on the underside will hit the dod stuff. I guess we'll find out in about 2 weeks.

Ok so I got some more stuff done to the intake manifold. I put 3 new vacuum ports in one for the booster and 2 for the dual catch cans I’m going to run. I also just got the ls2 valley cover in should have the catch cans on Friday or Monday. All goes on starting the 28th and I have an appointment on the 2nd to get it tuned. Anyways here are some pictures of the manifold.

I changed it from what I had. Put in a 1 7/8'' freeze plug with some sealer around it

LMAO yep stock injectors and rail. But at some point I think I might go with the LS6 rail and injectors like you did. I did't like hacking the mani like I did to make the stock rail work

I just Ron is willing to make the adapters. He said that the adapter is pretty time consuming. Once I get this beast going, I'll give him a list of names and see what he say's. Right now he seems willing to do so.
I would love to use my stock injectors and rail, but I'm to lazy to make everything fit.
The best bet would be to cut off the crossover tube and weld the holes up on a LS6 rail and then have two fittings welded to the outside of the rail ends, in order to attach a braided hose. i would then use a tee to feed the fuel. This would work perfectly with stock injectors.

Looking good and that TB adapter is killer! You should clean up those fender washers though. Can you grind them a little to shrink them down some? I would try a dab of JB weld. Hurry up!!!
