Fuel system for larger HP cars w/in

Got half of mine installed last night.





I have an aeromotive regulator to put up front. I just need to get my braided hose clamped down so I can figure out where exaclty its going to mount. Ill post pics of that when I get it all tired down too.

Are you still going with the super? I saw gary hess formula that is the cleanest fastest formula i have ever seen. I also saw THE corvette from speedway. it was the first time at the track so they were tuning it. At 20 lbs he ran 8.9@161 this car maid 1650hp @35 lbs. This is single turbo 410 sb that is simply amazing and still runs the IRS.this car a cd player and subwoofer in the back and looks like any plain vette.

Guido, quick tip dude, rubber mount that fuel pump to help keep the interior noise down. MSD makes some nice rubber mounts that have studs made into them that should work well.

Actually Superiroc, he was only running 15psi when he ran that number. Hey, were you there? I was, looked for you but couldn't find you. Bill is an extremely nice guy and he even stayed at my hotel and i got to talk to him a lot. BTW, i think corrected Bill's number would be like 8.65 @ 164-165. Also, yes the motor dynoed that much with that much boost, but he told me that it was kind of out of the compressor range and would probably never run that much at the track ever. Considering he could run like 25psi and still run 7's. amazing

Is that the vette from GMhightech. Fast car. Reminds me of the one in my home town in Northern Canada.
Buick Regal, twin turbo'ed 350, custom built fuel injection, mufflers, street car, insured, 8.92@150something on DOT tires. He's the fastest in British Columbia.
It's awsome at the drags if your sitting in the stands listening to people they seee it line up beside like a ten second big block camaro and are like "that old white gramma car is gonna get killed" its so funny because its so quiet and then bang you hear the turbos and he's gone.

Hey that Bill guy is Canadian too, I guess we really kick *** .

Damn right, they do. Bill is doing my motor and his car is capable of 7's if he gets rid of that IRS and puts a drag suspension on the car. We can only wait and see if he passes emissions.

hey, what size lines are you using on the fuel rails of that miniram, -8 or -10? i've got a -8 line running from my pump to the rails, but have to neck it down to -6 to screw into the rails of my miniram. i'm wondering if i'm going to run into fuel problems but won't know until i get it up and running... just have to get a heater hose fitting, finish my variable injector controller wiring, set the timing and fire it up.

89iroc were you wearing an f-body.com t shirt? I was there but without car. I was the short stalky dude walking around with the camcorder and camera. Bill seems realy cool and he knows his stuff wow. He is also doing my car a twin t04 355 that he said can make 1000hp. I might be skeptical but after seeing that amazing vette i have no doubt. What is bill going o do with your car?

Ive got a -8 running from my pump, and I welded -8 fittings onto the back of each fuel rail. I used a t-fitting to get them connected. That is how I didnt have a -6AN line. I didnt want to run it out of fuel. I DONT like the way the fuel rails are designed with only that small tube supplying the drivers side rail, so I fixed it.

thats right you were with your girlfriend. I got the shirt wrong oops. I heard you make a smart remark about how john put 4k into than formula. I couldn't agree more put a Sr or Mr on that car and some good heads. I think they could of built a much better 350 for the same price IMHO.
