Well I m finally done, what a pain, there were a few little catches here and there but I finally finished and I routed the fuel lines different. I like this way cause I didn't have to cut the steel lines and just reused them. I think it looks alittle cleaner, but anyway here they are http://community.webshots.com/photo/...41862004toXfwU
and http://community.webshots.com/photo/...41861647kByQcT
Yeah I know the bay is dirty, I plan to clean it this weekend or next.

yeah, I put the inlet fitting (well my buddy did) on the front of passagerside rail, and put the plug fitting on the driver's front rail. That way your throttle body clears, with no prob. Well my buddy routed the cross over to the rear, in front of the distb. you have to leave a little slack in the fittings to get it started, but it will fit, on make sure you put some teflon tape are that little fuel pressurer testing val, you know the one that looks like a tire val. cause that little savage was the only thing that linked. Basically a easy way to hook up your fuel lines, is to take off the rubber part of the fuel lines. Theres a long one and a short one take them with you, take your inlet and outlet fittings with you to a hose shop. Their hydril. fittings, that connect to fuel rails, well the shop I went to didn't have the ends to connect to my fuel lines, so that just cut off my old fittings and connected them to a set of new hoses with new fittings that will connect to your inlet and outlet fittings. So that way it will bolt back on with out a prob. You could route it like I have mine, I just got the inlet hose the same size as the longer hose, with a 45 degree fitting on the end. (you could do 90 if you want) and then get the outlet hose 6 inches longer than that one with a strait fitting and you can route that one like I did beside the intake along the valve cover, I think its looks pretty clean that way. Hope that helps.

Oh sorry about that tpi_roc, well it pulles harder than my SLP runners/edelbrock base. And it shifts alot later, but pulls really smooth at 70 and up, Yesterday was really the only day I could take it out and get on it. I think I still have some bugs to workout though, But I hope to get to the track sometime in the next few weeks. It's just been raining here like everyday.

no , I still got my stock chip,right now I only got free flowing exhausts, and some other little mods, my heads and cam are stock. . yeah on the site I took a pic of the mismatch of the heads with the intake, you can see the port of the head. But thats another project I just had to get it running for now.
