Here is another pic from Rick. Passenger side crossover to clear the 4" DP. Looks like the kit is coming along good so I am going to order injectors monday. I think FIC 850cc will get the job done. They flow 980cc or 93.3lb/hr at 4 bar. Should be plenty for pump gas and meth to reach 800rwhp and then some.

Right now I have a catch can in between my LS6 valley cover and intake mani. From my reading, I should get rid of the catch can and just vent the two valve covers. I bought two K&N filters but the drivers side filter is way to big to clear the coil brackets. Here is the one I tried to use. 3" diameter http://www.summitracing.com/parts/knn-62-1070. What size filters are you guys using to push in the drivers side valve cover?
When I get home tuesday, I will tear the intake off of the engine to plug some vac sources, route the vac block, relocate my fuel pressure regulator and do a little bit of clean up.

Rick got the turbo in and they sent him a T6 housing
. So a .90 A/R T4 housing is in route to him. Getting tired of my truck just sitting there so I decided to work on what I can. I ordered FIC 850cc injectors today so i took the intake off the engine to reroute some things and make it easier to swap injectors. I mounted the 3 bar map to the back of the intake manifold, moved my fpr back to where it was when I had the carb'd 383, and mounted my vacuum manifold to the pcm cover.




Next I'll add my boost gauge in place of the nitrous pressure gauge. After that I'm screwed until the kit shows up.

Got the FIC 850cc injectors in today. There is about a 5mm height difference (FIC injector on the left). Fits the rails and manifold fine. Just need to contact FIC to get the injector data. I need to plug the stock map sensor hole and main PCV hole in the intake mani. Anyone have any suggestions on what to use?

Great build! I'm also working with Rick now on my stage 4 with a 7675 and 3.5 DP. I'm going from a sts kit and I was wondering what the vacuum manifold you have is used for? This is not the first time I have seen this on a build and I'm becoming curious. Thanks
