so I finally ordered the Rtek 2.1 and will be throwing the engine back together starting next week. iv decided to wait to build the intake manifold and just keep the old ones for now. I wanna have it up and running by summer time. I will be making a stainless cold air intake tho.

Umm block off bolts or extra injectors also if you are not going for larger fuel system why take out omp in my opinion put it back in and premix you are covered extra that way especially since it looks like you want to race it

finally got my FC running after two years of tinkering around and she runs great. installed the RTEK 2.1 and put a new battery in. I changed the fuel filter and sock. Took it for a rip down the block.
I recently put new RB sway bars and now when the suspension travels the sway bar hits the frame. Would short end links fix that? Has anyone had this before?

Ended up dropping the rear sub frame on saturday. Wanted to install the toe eliminator bushings but one thing lead to another and we got carried away. Plan now is to change all the bushings in the car with poly eurathane ones from j auto, new drilled and slotted brakes, agx adjustable shocks with our tein springs, a grand total of 1600 $$ later and it should be back together haha
The whole sub frame will be torn apart, sandblasted and painted. I will also be repairing some more rust with detailed picture of the uni body repair.
