ICULOKN, the oil pickup tube on your engine looks different than the stock one on my 2001. Did you use a different tube?

 

Easter, those pics Rich posted are actually my 01 engine. In our motor package kits, we use a high volume oil pump that uses an over size pickup tube that almost twice the diameter of the stock one.

 

Thanks Sal. Another question for you then. I looked at the pictures that are hosted where the engine pics are also and saw the fuel pump set up. Is this a new type of setup and what is the reason for it?

 

LOL, looks like you guys found one of my AOL ftp sites. That is a pic of my partially finished fuel pump set up for my 01. The billet fuel block was used to bulkhead the lines to a -8 fitting, since my new fuel system runs -8 lines to the rails and regulator.

 

Did this take care of fuel pressure problems?

 

No, replacing the defective regulator fixed that problem

 

I will be putting a list together soon, keep em coming.

 

I've got a built motor and am very happy with the results

 

Have one built, just haven't put it in yet...........waiting on other "stuff".

 

I'm seriously thinking about building Lightning engines on the west coast, does this count ?

Hey, maybe I can become a supporting vendor ? Anyone wanna bash me ? LOL J/K (about the bash part)
