Sorry, 'EvilCartman' I didn't flake on you.
I just caught it with the lastest thread resurrection.
There's three systems to chose from:
http://www.marchperf.com/pg5.html
These were my part #'s I used.
----------------------
6380 - High water flow set - $192
624 - Power Steering pulley - $68
20123 - Alternator Bracket - $50
The power steering bracket is next!!!

Hehe, no problem and thanks for the info
icebird_1981, thanks for the comment I'm planning to do some cosmetic things to the car this year since I dropped a load of cash into the engine and transmission last year. I should be able to order up the first thing in 2 or 3 weeks

It's about time I get some type of pics up.
This is a shot of my 388 before I started to really clean her up, new pics on the way soon, plus of the new SS look.
For now, tell me what you think? I removed all heater/ac stuff, and finally put sheet metal over the holes, looks good, the bay is clean and with plenty of room.
She dyoned at 525 hp at the wheel, soon to add 200 shot n20.

Dude are you sure rubber fuel line across the hot intake/valve cover is safe?

There's a maximum total length of rubber line allowed (every piece adds to the total) - I don't have the rule book in front of me so I'm not sure of the exact value, but just the part that's in the picture is more than enough to violate the rule.
