Default nnbs caltracs install

Agreed, the install was a PIA!!
I would recommend to anyone next time..take springs off, use a press to remove bushing..its easy that way if you know ahead of time..

Today I reinstalled the bed and the new blacked out bumper. Had to do a little exhaust work too. I remove the curve in the pipe after the downpipe. Make it a straight shot from the downpipe the the flex joint and muffler. Tuning it next week and maybe dyno it too. Want be trying for a world record but just testing the fuel system and maybe 10lb and up to 15lb. That should make 750 to 800rwhp if all goes well.

sorry I just caught the part of the thread that you stated you would use and installed the walbro 450.
I am really curious how this works for you and if the fmu gets in the way??
I am about to upgrade my fuel pump setup and if I can avoid doing a dual pump "change entire fuel system" setup I will..

waiting to hear results of your dyno and fuel pump results....
