    We are not happy with the "Fuel Guy" we brought on board (CPR) Does not return calls, excuses after excuse! This guy has had my fuel tank pick-up assembly for 2 months. They supposable are making a new one that will hold a 1000hp fuel pump with the added return line that we need. The whole damn thing is no larger then a coffee can and yet 2 months have elapsed. BTW, the custom manifold that Bryan posted pic's of was started just a couple weeks before Christmas... I think there is a little more work involved in this manifold then this silly fuel pick-up that has taken 2 months:furious:

    well we could have NA with the stock fuel system but decided against it. After CPR screwed us on what they said they woul deliver and what thy actually did we are using a full new fuel setup so once thats in we technically could but planning for about a month.. maybe alittle more

    Finished up the hardlining of the nitrous system today. Just have to buld a mount for the solinoids and be good to go. Hides nicely with the intake on. Pretty sure majority of people wnn't ever notice.
