Huh, no more TPI and I see a bunch of straps keeping the hose connections from blowing apart… anything else? Did it get the bigger engine yet? How does it run?

I thought you were going for dual LS1 TB before the blowers?

Runs real good, still have a ton of tuning to do. I did take it for a good long drive from dayton to greenville. Other than blowing a collector gasket all to hell, everything held together. I replaced the gaskets with aluminum ones, so the leak is gone but the following day the fuel pump started showing signs of dying. I've ordered up a new Walbro 340... Of course the fuel tank is about 3/4 full. No track times yet.

I'm running a 92 305 TBI shortblock, LT1 cam, and L98 (64cc) heads. Yeah no more PITA TPI.. The HSR rocks for servicing.

The dual TB was more hassle than it was worth so I stuck with the single after the blowers.. I'm going to swap to a 3" GN type TB (Grumpy wants me to give it a try).

Right now working on getting the primer block sanded and ready for paint. Hopefully have it painted in the next couple weeks..

About the fuel pump....

http://www.racetronix.com/Racetronix-TTA_Pump_Kit.html

Is this the kit I should be getting/the kit you're going to use?

I just want to double check that i'm not buying a pump with the incorrect physical dimensions.
