So 16 injectors, right? 4 fuel rails? 2 fuel regulators, pumps, and tanks? Hope I'm not being too dense.

Parish, if you need help with the crankcase evac you could call Andy at A&A Corvettes. He has experience with vacuum pumps and might be able to give advise for other systems too. Keep up the good work, the truck looks great!

i got a valve cover breather installed, got the intercooler pump wired up. decided it was time to go give it a little push and see if the oil leak went away. it didn't. the first time i got on it good it belched out a quart out the back of the motor somewhere, grrrrrr. time to pull the tranny and see where that oil is coming from.

since the oil leak doesn't seem to be coming from crank case presure that means the exhaust evac might be working. i will do some testing once i get the oil leak fixed.

i ran it up to 10psi and it pulled real hard, spool time seems to be about the same as the 88. it takes a little before it starts coming on but once it does it builds boost fast. , couple more days and maybe i can really get on it.
