I hear that. Its easy to lose track of what is needed to finish and complete the car's setup,and what you want to buy because you have that "itch".

I cant wait to see the car in person though, awesome build sir.

Have you considered one weldon pump instead of three ford pumps?

I was always a little nervous running two walboro pumps.

After the TT fox, the Lightning, and now the Cobra, all having mutiple pumps, I've grown to trust them. I'm doing this to keep the good fuel mileage, driveability, and the performance all at the same time. A lot of people are telling me I should go with a return fuel system, but Ed (my tuner) told me This set up should be fine and use less fuel in normal driving than the return set up.

Got the pump wires soldered up and the tank back in. Then I ran the 3 pump feed lines to the 3-1 Y block, trying to avoid the part of the spare tire well that my diff smacks and dents when I launch the car! haha The angle of the camera makes the lines look closer to the dent then they are.



Then I ran the line from the Y block to the Aeromotive fuel filter. Then I was gonna run the line up to the engine bay, but Lethal didn't supply enough line, so We are gonna have to give them a call tomorrow to see if they can hook us up.

Why are you staying with the stock manifolds (They do look much better than our rusty ones) or did I miss something? I would have thought you would benefit from longtubes?

this is all good, but you'll be on a whole new buildup by the time mine runs.

The kit uses the stock manifolds. They actually lost power with JBA shorties When Hellion tried them. When you look at the 03 Cobra manifolds, they are pretty healthy, and Jason also cleaned mine up a bit too.
