Tim, your bracket looks good but you can buy the Ford bracket. It's the stock setup for the 2010 Mustang GT. It locates the PS reservoir in front of the idler pulleys instead of over in front of the valve cover.

Thanks. I've seen that location before Brian, but the PS hoses on my 06' car would have to be changed out because I tried that location of yours and it won't work. Hoses are way to short. Plus my 06' car is different than yours as I have the dual upper rad hose crossover and you have the single. That driver upper radiator hose to the crossover would get in the way of the PS reservoir. I like yours Brian but for my situation this seemed to work best without costing me any money.

Thought I'd throw up a couple pics of the Fore F2i regulator and Fore Y block. I made the custom brackets here at work. The regulator is attached to the shock tower tab which has to be modified and trimmed back leaving about an inch of mounting space for the regulator. The y block bracket attaches directly to the strut mount stud and nut. One of the benefits of having a tall cowl Trufiber A29 hood is the extra vertical space. Hopefully I will have time this weekend to start cutting and fitting all the fuel lines. Notice I got the Fore driver rail back from the machine shop with a return -8an bung welded to the side of the driver rail. They also v-cut a nice taper at the rear of the rail so it fits nicely between the bypass hose and bypass valve. A flush -8an plug fit without issue at the back of the rail. KB never intended for a 2.8L Mammoth to be installed with anything other than OEM rails and an OEM returnless fuel system. Modifications have to be made going return style and can vary how deep depending on whose rails you want to purchase and whether you want the regulator before or after the rails. Most tuners prefer it AFTER the rails so I made those provisions to do so.

Here is the Fore vacuum manifold installed. Really nice piece:



Fore FC3 pump controller wired and installed:



Fore hat with twin AEM 1200's installed.



Next project is making up the lines running from the hat up to the engine compartment as well as the lines from the Y block to the rails and the regulator to the rails.

Thanks guys. Going slow but we've got another 60 days or so of cold temps around here so no need to rush.

I got quite a bit done this past weekend. Fuel lines from the hat to the engine compartment as well as all the fuel lines cut and installed under the hood. I also managed to get the catch can mounted just in front of the vacuum manifold. This is where I had my catch can before with my M90. But when I installed the Fore vacuum manifold I didn't think I would still be able to mount it there. Glad it worked out. I also think the machine shop did a great job on my driver fuel rail with the tapered milling so it would fit between the bypass valve. The guy also did a great job welding on the -8 bung so I could run my regulator after the rails. I just can't get over how massive this blower is compared to my M90 lol.

Im not really familiar with the aftermarket fuel set ups. Does the Y block split the feed line to the front of both rails, and then the rear of the fuel rails run to the outside of the regulator and the bottom of the regulator goes back to the tank?

Yes. You've got it right. It's a -10 feed from the hat to the Y-block. The other lines are -8.

Installed braided sleeving and clamp covers on the blower coolant lines and the hose that feeds the reservoir. That braided sleeving is a BITCH to put on, especially when the hose is long.

Man you build is really looking good... makes me wish I would have taken more time to clean the engine bay before I put my 326 in... I think that will be my next winter project along with a wire tuck..

I definitely think the polished on a KB looks better! Very nice!
