Update

Got the car back together and the car was not any faster then it was before the H/C/I swap so after taking the fuel pump out there was a hole in the pickup tube so after installing a 255 fuel pump the car runs way better and pulls way harder then it ever has .....

I also got a adjustable fuel regulator with a gauge and nitrous fuel line ....

The Trickflow plate system is coming next ....

update

Car runs amazing and made great power but I really wanted more so I bought a Vortech v2 Strim I will post some pics of my install and of the blower ...The car made 293 rwhp and had a huge vacuum leak when it was dynoed .. I did not have the car tuned I ordered a Chip from Dirty Dirty Racing and Willy got the tune perfect.. The cars Air/Fuel is on and car runs great.After finding the vacuum leak the car has way more low end torque. The 24lb injectors will be swapped for 42 lb and there will be a lightning mass air.. I will set the car for around 400 rwhp to keep the stock block from coming apart .. Hope you enjoy

Ya got the blower on and it was amazing but did not want to push it with the FMU so I ordered injectors and mass air.. Also sending off Chip and waiting to get it back ..

With those trick flow heads, I'm assuming the have a 2.02 valve, did u have to do anything to the stock pistons for the ptv clearance? I have read that there heads are direct bolt on unlike let's say edlebrock with the same specs... I want to get some trick flow heads but I was curious about that... Thanks... Also there vert is so sexy

Ya with Trickflows twisted wedge heads you dont have to notch the pistons because the valves are twisted around ....

Ok so here is whats going on with the car ..

After Installing The Trickflow Top end kit the car was faster but not fast enough because the cars weight. It need more so I bought the Vortech S trim kit.

I have friends with new saleens , Shelbys , GTOs so I needed a car that could keep up..

After polishing out the vortech and buying some new injectors and mass air and power pipe it was time to start installing the kit .. I then had to buy the tuning burner and software to dial in the car after everything was installed.


Trickflow Twisted wedge 170 heads
Custom Cam
Trickflow INtake
70mm T body
70 mm Elbow
03 Cobra Mass air
Mass air adapter
4 inch power pipe
4 inch K&N filter
Vortech S trim
50 lb MSD Injectors
3 core radiator
373 gears
bbk Fuel pressure regulator
Chrome Fox body valve covers
Mac shorty Headers
X pipe no cats
Flowmasters
ect ,ect ,ect


The car is going to be around 7-10 pounds of boost with the UPR power pipe




Also will be fully Detailing the motor and polishing everything out ..
