I am not sure if you can rotate the float switch without causing the seal to break.. I just didnt hook up the switch at all.

Yeah your good there. Just twist it. Its just a rubber grommet. I've pulled mine in and out several times with no leaking issues.

Siadam fyi the AEM float switch doesnt work with the cmgs.
The polarity is switched. The AEM float switch is grounded when the tank is full but the CMGS is set to read ground as empty, so if you hook up the lines the low fluid fault will turn on even tho your tank is full.

Also I've completely tested the aquamist check valves in each line and it works great. Instant spray and vacuum doesnt open it. The flow is normal also.

I am ordering this stuff ASAP
Joey, he used a check valve on each individual line, which would be 4 total.
I didn't go this route, I'm curious to see what the outcome is, and if it doesn't work out, I'll try it.
Here is what I finished last night.

Tonight, I'm going to try to get some things bolted up, figure out a place to mount my distribution manifold, and make a little mount for it.

^^^^ nice! I like the idea of the 4 small check valves on each injector, this I think is a must to prevent all the drain back in the lines and distribution block- which is a fair bit to have under vacuum running. The part I don't like is that it will rob my 150psi pump of essential pressure/atomization, which means if I were smart I would upgrade to the 250psi pump, especially considering I was still going to use a smaller single injector on a two stage.
...and Joey, you decided to make the change to direct port?

Most solenoids are ~$50/piece, so thats another 200 added into the price + more wiring/etc.
An actual injector would be ideal, b/c it solves both the jetting problem and the solenoid problem by combining both into one part.

The best way, but most expensive is a solendoid on each line.
