Well ran into a hiccup with fuel surge system, which is being custom built. Net/net is they will be redoing my entire fuel system with a new one to support the surge. I guess it's a bonus as it should be stronger with the ethonol.

In the final stretch now car to be tuned next Wednesday and then off to canton for pan/accusump. After that alignment and balance, body panels painted, and aim dash install!

Canton's putting on the oil pan for you? I figured I would be laying on the wet garage floor trying to do that with the car just up on jackstands.

And then, the way I drive, I probably don't need to worry about oil starvation in the first place, and I certainly don't have a clue what fuel surge is. Usually I don't have enough.

Are you going to be running pump gas or that $12 per gallon Cam 2?

Canton is using mine as their dummy car, since I'm one of the few guys in CT. With the supercharger and eventually running slicks I don't want to take any risks, but your right I doubt immediately I'll have any issues. I'll actually be running flex fuel E85 setup, so I can run E85 when I want, but can always switch to 93 without having to change maps, it will automatically adjust the map based on the ethanol content. I used to switch between E85 and 93 having to empty tank completely and then manually change maps, it was a major PIA, so I'm really excited for this. Plenty of E85 stations in Westchester County which is a a few minutes from me.

Decided to add a wastegate to supercharger along with ITB's and headers to make crazy low end power but control boost so I don't go over 350 whp.
