Got my fuel filter in from Freddy...thank you man.
Here's another teaser shot of the chassis in its current state. Def a huge project.
Now I begin to work on chassis prep/paint and cutting more weight.

It's a 5 gallon cell, and it will be mounted up front, between the frame rails, on the drivers side. Unfortunately, ít's not a factory fit so some cutting will have to be made.

lol a lot of cutting i have started mine and i have hardly anything left in the front and it still will not fit...... same size 5 gallon cell but i tried to mount it on the right hand side as i am putting radiator or left..... good luck hope you have alot of cutting discs.

Alright alright...new batch of questions and concerns I have. Again, I'm always grateful for any information or advice on anything I ask, and I'm completely open to all different angles of attack, so please do provide your perspective.
1. I'm not 100% sure on the number of injectors I should have. Initial horsepower goal is 600rwhp, with the ability to flow enough for 800rwhp (although I might not ever want that much). I believe my two options are to go with 8 injectors or 12 injectors. If I went with 8 injectors, the fuel calculators show I would need injectors somewhere around 2000cc each. If I went with 12 injectors (which is what I prefer) I would require injectors around 1400cc each. I'd rather go with the 12 injectors. My logic is: More injectors = lower duty cycle, increased reliablilty, more control. So 8 injectors or 12? Or 10 (I dont know anyone running 10 injectors). Injectors will be Injector Dynamics brand.
2. I plan on using the factory 13B-RE (cosmo) upper and lower intake manifolds (for now), and welding additinal injector bungs. Now the question here is, what is the preferable setup (Ofcourse this is dependent on the amout of injectors I use). Concerns are: should I block off the stock primary injector locations and use all new bungs on 2/3 rails...or keep 2 injectors at the primary injector location and weld addition bungs upstream.
Ex: 2 Primary injectors in stock location -> 2 addition injectors between stock primary location and stock secondary location -> 4 bungs at stock secondary location. 3 total rails/8 injectors
or Ex: Block off stock primary injector locations -> 4 "primary" injectors (located between the stock primary location and the stock secondary location) -> 4 "secondary" injectors at the stock secondary location. 2 total rails/8 injectors.
or Ex: Block off stock primary injector locations -> 4 "primary" injectors (located low) -> 4 "secondary" injectors located midway -> 4 more injectors located in the stock secondary location or slightly higher. 3 total rails/12 injectors.
These are just examples.

Hey buddy can you show me how you mounted your fell cell and what radiator are you suing and where you mounting it?
I got the same cell as you and mounted my one to the left hand side and radiator is right but wont fit lol so would like to see how you mount yours.
Thanks
