It aint too bad to pull the blower and IM off
its a little harder with the TVS and the extra **** I have but its still pretty easy.
hardest thing about the install for me was holding the IM by myself, sliding a bolt in the manifold and thru the 2 gaskets and spacer and thread it all at the same time.

Yup; I like going over there all the time and getting to hang out and occasionally help. haven't been over there in a couple weeks, but I will be there sometime this week to drop the fuel rail off.
I have decided to do a -6 feed and -6 return if I decide to go that route.
their 1400hp srt10(silver) truck uses -8 for the feed. so thats way overkill for my little shitbox

Just a little update. Bwoody traction bars came in today; hopefully I can get to work early and install them. Been freaking busy the past 2 weeks...
Out of the box
After a little bit of interwebz searching and using the noodle got them put together. I dont know if bwoody has recently updated this or if their install writeup is out of date, but some things are a little off.
This is how they go together on the subframe side, the rubber bushing goes on the bottom side of the frame to help with the noise that quite a few people complained about in the past.
If I can get a chance to install them tomorrow, I will take a ton of pictures and so a full how to write up.

Traction bars installed pretty easy, hardest part was dealing with keeping them loose while i lowered her off the rack.
Did an initial 1/2 turn and tightened them down.
Still a very slight bit of wheel hop, might go another 1/4 turn, might not.
Very noticeable difference, steering wheel feels tighter, response feels better.
No noise at all, dont know what people were bitching about...
measured and center punched
1/4" pilot hole drilled
5/8" hole drilled and cleaned up
front subframe hole that the front of the link bolts to
When putting together the links, make it easy and use anti seize.
Test fit
Very shitty picture....but all set
As she sits

Yup Yup.
guy does amazing work. My past tuning experiences are with carbs, and thats it.
When He was doing the work, he was pretty open and explained to me how **** works the best he could and showed me what was going on and what to look for.
he's itching for me to pulley down and get more fuel.

Finally got around to purchasing a new fuel pump module; got it thru work, so I was able to put it on account...Went ahead and broke it down and installed DW300; Dont feel like typing much. pictures should suffice
ACD Mu1970 (19257125)
May just pull the factory feed line from pump to module and put in some hose like most people do, just dont have any at the house. Just need to order regulator and 80s and ill be set for fuel for a little while...Too bad I have been buying up pistols, ammo, and AR mags like none other.

...truthfully, it will never be done.
spent more money on weapons this winter than I was planning, so Im gonna just stick with fuel system this winter. Hopefully before EVO/DSM shootout next year I will have the built head on, balance shaft delete, and 2.7" and ATI SC balancer.

Damn I haven't seen anyone with BWoody traction bars around here in forever. I used to have those back in the day.
Why is the outlet so high on your flow through tank?

I have definitely noticed a difference in the trac bars; dont make any noise; arent that low to hit on anything...yet
Those are the returns; The outlet is in the center in the bottom of the tank. I have a dual pass plate and instead of T fittings for the dual pass, I just went ahead and have 2 separate lines back to the tank.

Shout out to Josh and everyone at OTTP for dealing with me.
I totally forgot to post up pictures of how I routed the return line from the regulator and how to install a fuel pump; ran out of time since the shop closes and hour earlier in the winter months.
but its pretty easy...
The bracket still needs to be pulled off and be powdercoated
60s installed onto LSJ rail
return line installed
'feed' and return installed
KOEO adjusting fuel pressure-jumper 87 and 30 use a 20A fuse in between
KOER
Engine bay
