its got to be comforting for rear seat passengers to know they are sitting on 20 gal of fuel. although the driver aint to far away...might as well be a motorcycle

Update:

Fuel return-just need to add return line, and see if there are any leaks.

Injectors- Need to soder 3 more injectors and they are done.

Utec-Ecu is uninstalled and waiting for me to go to SGP. flash the Utec, comeback and install on the car and get it ready to drive up to SGP to tune.

Pulley-This will be the last thing I do. Since me and Drew have to switch at whatever time. (No big deal, Easy work)

Hopefull it will up and running Saturday.

Utec should have a base map already in it capable of getting you to SGP safely.

it has the base map but not for the 440cc injectors. he's gonna let them flash the utec and then install on the car so he can drive the whole thing up there for a proper tune

The Utec with the base map will push the 440s. they will just be at a very light duty cycle. IT would be fine imo
