Thought i'd update the thread.

We rushed to get everything back together for the Bradenton NMRA. It was a push, but we got it all done.

Heres what we got. BES Built shortblock with Diamond Pistons and Manley Rods. Bischoff also did a mild valve job on the heads, but we didn't do anything crazy because of the upcoming JPC Heads / Cams.

We had BES set us up double keyed for the ATI balancer going on.

Finish Line humped it and got it back in the car and everything working great.

For the fuel system. Nothing is available yet for the 2011's. Fore is working on it, but not to market just yet.

We went with a 2010 Fuel tanks we had cleaned and boiled. We added a Fore Hat with Dual Walbro 255's. We also added a Fore Fuel Filter and Fore Fuel Pressure Regulator. Rails will be coming soon, for now we are still dead heading, but the system is working good.

We went with 8 feed lines, and actually used the stock feed line for our return. It worked out really well.

We set the regulator at 40 base PSI and it's boost activated to give about 1 psi per pound of boost. The regulator actually helped calm down the big 60's. Before the return system, the stock system stays about 55psi all the time. And it can play havic with the big injectors at low rpm and idle. The regulator smoothed out 90% of that.
I went with the Autometer Cobalt's for the gauges as I think they are one of the best looking gauges and match the interior really well. We also did a Roush Gauge pod for the Dynojet Wideband.

For a little sizzle, I went with some custom made sill plates.

To make burnouts a little easier, we went with a JPC linelock. It's a single solenoid system and works great so far. Haven't had any issues out of the kit. The fitment is great, and the switch location has worked out really good.

I actually had JPC send us an extra matching switch for the fuel pumps. We wired them in to where we can turn them off for things like loading tunes, or waiting in the lanes with the datalogger running.

We then swapped out to a pulley that is showing us about 13 psi. Peak hp is around 11 psi at 6600 rpms. We are running very conservative on the tune to start with. 11.0 A/F with 17 to 18 degrees of timing. The car made 585 rwhp and 486 ft/lbs on
Dog House Racing's Dynojet.

Next up is the Boss Intake install. We sent the car to our fab buddy Rob Lewis at Rogue Race Cars in Williamsburg, OH. A new tube to the intake was going to be needed. The Vortech Kit inverts the throttle body. With the Boss Intake, the inverted throttle body hits the hood. So? What now?

How bout 90 degrees? The trick is the bolt pattern does not match. Luckily Rob is a talented individual and threw the adapter on the lathe and cut it in half, did a little rotating, welding, and machining, and voila! A perfect adapter!

Dyno #'s on the Boss Intake will be coming tomorrow! The JPC Heads and Cams are awaiting install this weekend as well. Unfortunately those results are going to be part of an article for 5.0 Mustang and Super Ford Magazine. So, you'll have to wait for the article from Michael Johnson!
