Bit of an update. Aftermarket fuel rails and 60lb injectors are installed. Undercar VCM surge tank with 2 044's installed and fuel tank refitted. 1/2" hardline feed and 3/8" hardline return all fitted up. Sump has been drilled and tapped and a fitting has been installed. Waiting on some exhaust heat wrap to wrap my manifold and dump pipe so they dont fry everything in the engine bay
