First little things like spark plugs...
Iridium?
Do they make them for 2gs?
whats so great about them?

weather to run fuel injector clinic 1650 cc injectors compatible with all fuels.
or fuel injector clinic 2150 cc injectors?
Not compatible with all fuels.
I want to run 93 pump and E85-E95 possible to also finde race gas if i wanted it.

Coil on plugs...worth the $$$???
If so what brand?
Will it help make more power?

now that John Shepherd stop doing Dsm's do you recommend tre or Jacksons transmissions???
And i always felt 1st gear was to short so I'll probably go evo 3 1st gear and input shaft... 5th always seemed to short as well...any solution???
Think mountain passes and street car.
3k-7500 rpm power band.

whether to do with Magnus intake manifold or JM Fabrication?
Im running an FP Green for now.

Magnus, Aromotive, or F.I.C. fuel rail?
Is any better than the other in any way?

Coilovers? Best of the best?

Whats the best break upgrade for our 2g cars?
Evo brembo?
If so whats needed?

How do i go about running a fuel cell like the steath A1000 Aromotive with a walbro 450lph in stock tank?
Or would i be better off running a line from the stock tank to the fuel cell return and just run the A1000 pump?

What throttle body would you recommend useing?
5.0 mustang, s90 70mm or 74mm?

My subframe bushings are going out so solid polyurethane or rubber?

Stock moter mount bushings rubber or polyurethane?

Is the rear Magnus subframe as good as they say?as in worth $2400 ow?

Where do i find a full carbon fiber dash NOT a cover?

Where do i find i full fiberglass dash NOT a cover?
And more???????to come

Over build and you will be fine, that is what I did. Looks like a good list and you can mark things off as you go. You didn't mention turbo size. You can always scale down bigger injectors but can't make them bigger so probably the 2150's. I am running out of fuel on 1120's on E85 so buy the biggest you can afford. Good list though!
 
Im breaking it in with an fp green for now

Thanks FP green in pictures
 
Don't run iridium plugs. Run a copper. Ngk Br7es is what I run. I wouldn't mess with cop. I made 606hp without cop. 2150 injectors, aem fuel rail, br7es plugs, magnus smim, tre transmission, ported n/t throttle body, 450 in tank and in line 255 with 6an feed. Why do you want the stock tank and a fuel cell?

For a couple of reasons.
Its a fun road trip car.
I hate stopping for gas.

15 gallons in fuel cell may at some point run straight alcohol.
While the stock tank will be running clear 93 pump gas or race gas.

My thought was, how fun would it be to toy with how much alcohol to gas ratio my car had depending on how i was driving the car?
While also being able to take long trips to see the in laws useing 93 pump gas in both stock tank and fuel cell, or do the same with E-85.

So yeah, how do i do this LOL
Whould i need 8 injectors?
Whould i need 2 fuel rails?
Would i need 2 fuel pressure regulators?
1 8AN from out of stock tank to inlet of fuel rail. With 1 6AN return line back to tank, running a walbro 450lph pump.
1 8AN from out of fuel cell to inlet of fuel rail. With 1 6AN return line from fule rail to fuel cell with A1000 fuel pump .
This sounds like a bit of work but one day, that was my gole...

First i thought, set it up for both to run one type of gas until i could afford tons of money in extra parts fuel rail, fuel pressure regulator, 4 more injectors, 6AN and 8AN hard lines, exct.

And by then i should have it tuned for gas or E-85 giving me a base line of how they both preform with this set up.
So i guess ill ask how to go about that both alcohol and gas in different tanks question for now.LOL
Put it on my one day maybe list LOL
 
You could plumb in a fuel tank switching valve like trucks with dual tanks have and just have to move the lever to the other tank. Our old farm truck had dual tanks and that's how we switched from one to the other. Mtc's
 
Now im looking at running a walbro 450LPH with 8an line to fuel rail.
So any one know what is the better brand for fuel rail?
Aeromotive, MAGNUS, or fuel injector clinic?
 
I would say that there is no big gain between any of those three. All are tried and true. I personally run a hp AEM rail.

I think your two tank idea is unique, but the way I look at it is if you're looking for the peace of mind, why not just stop to get gas a little sooner? Ha. And I get what you're saying about the switching between fuels at any time to make a little more and have fun. But you gotta think of all the extra weight going into the car between the parts and actual weight of the fuel in the cell. The added weight is most likely going to hold the car back from making much noticeable power for how much money would go into it. It's your car though. Just thought you may enjoy reading from a different perspective.
 
F.I.C. 1650cc high-Z it was hard choosing between those and the 2150cc. It came down to spray pattern and corrosion. If i ever need more fuel I'll just buy 4 more 1650cc injectors assuming i like them.
And that 8 injectors set up is 3,300cc that should be plenty of fuel.
 
Ok so now im looking at fuel lines but i ran into a problem.
Do any of you know who to get 1/2" stainless steel fuel lines from?
It just seems to be aluminum im finding.
Only reason i ask is i drive to places that sometimes see temperatures as low as -30 to -40.
If i can't find 1/2" stainless steel fuel lines I'll just run with 8AN Earl's pro-lite ultra, unless you guys and gals know of a lighter more durable yet flexible fuel hose out ther that also is rated at -40°F to 300°F. Im planning on ordering fuel lines Monday so quick ancers would be nice.
 
Now im needing a clutch fast like yesterday.
I wanted the south bend ss-x Kevlar/ceramic
They say it handels 550-650 TQ and its a full faced clutch.
Where do i get one fast by Thursday or Friday?
I live in Oregon and tmz has it but how long is the wate for it?
I didn't see an overnight or next day shipping option on the web site???
