one more thing ....i thought my fuel pump is the same as the one in a stock lt1 thats rated up to 500 hp but the more i think about this the more i get confused...i just want to do it right the first time
kinda offtopic, but speaking of upgrading things, is it a must to change out plugs to tr6's, or would it be ok to spray for a few weeks with regular plugs? NOS manual says 85 shot is fine with stock gapping. Not trying to change subjects, was just looking for a quick response while the subject of upgrading the system was up.

It has been done. You will probably be fine.
But when it comes to your motor... is "probably" good enough?

The electrodes on the spark plugs burnt up quick when I sprayed with stock plugs.
As for the fuel pump... My stock pump was good for 13's with an 85 dry shot.

Oh well, At least I out powered a C5 vette.
Hmmmmmm... </font>[/QUOTE]Oh yeah,
THat was with a 125 dry shot. Don't go that high with a dry shot. The fuel doesn't atomize correctly and your motor will go BOOM like mine did.

Aight, I was definitely planning on doing them, but now I will be sure to do them before. Just gotta get a long afternoon since it's such a pita.
btw, geoff, still got your install instructions, I think I'm just gonna scan them and send em back since it's taking me so long to get everything done.

Don't feel rushed. I would like them back before I go to boot camp though, which is on May 30.
