i had to clip the sheet metal and add fender flares. I might have gotten away with doing some heavy rolling of the fenders but i went with "gratiutious amounts of space" method. No spacers, 0 offset, 8" width

i am really considering making a new engine harness from scratch using all shield military spec wire. i am having some rather annoying issues with interference and / or grounding problems.

Subscribing because I want to use the same (type of) intake system.

So you're currently using a N/A block with the 6PI manifold and just have the ports wired open? I have been holding out for a turbo block to avoid the aux ports, but I may have to resort to this type of setup if my luck continues.

the lower manifold is a simply maz made one for the 6pi so there is no provision for the aux ports. eventually i need to build another engine. this one is a stocker from a vert i had with at least 230,000 on it at this point.

and in other needs, im loosing pressure to the clutch, sooo need to see if its the slave or the master.
