Nice motors guys, although theres too much "stuff" in the way to actually see anything definite. HOWEVER all that "stuff" is what we dream about there are some pretty nice set ups, but what Im actually looking for is something I can see on a stock TPI system. Now your also giving me ideas of keeping the Paxton I have and doing both (although I know there would be a lot of motor work to do)
thanks again
Jack

Does this help....this is a NOS 5151 wet system made for TPI. I have since made the plumbing a little neater. But the solenoids (not shown) are mounted near the strut tower. If I were to do this again, I would use hard lines straight from the plate, 90* turn towards the back of the motor, and mount the solenoids to the firewall. However, custom size braided lines would be required. I am working on that now, and will post a finished pic.
