Default Motor is in car. Pics of single plane and rear mount distrib.

Still getting everything hooked up and doing all the final little details to get it ready to crank. Alot of guys were asking how the distributor fit and what had to be cut for the intake/tb setup. I still need to cut the plastic to make it look better but here are the pics. This is an accel intake and running a 1" spacer. For reference the super vic is suppose to be taller than my intake. Sorry for the mess...still have lots of wire rerouting and clean everything up to make it look good.












this one is kinda big so if you want to click on it feel free tool.

Looks cool. What CID is it, what C/R? What ECM system are you running? Who's fuel line y-block is that? Despite all your work, you've kept the stock back-of-head coolant return line. Mine works just fine.

Is that set up more effective than the conventional EFI with larger injectors and larger throttle body? Does that intake flows better?

from what I gather, a single plane likes high rpm--- abouve 6500 is where it shines the best.
