I went with aluminum hard lines and braided stainless hoses with AN fittings. I bought a AC Delco pump (Carter) thats too small...so I'd recommend something like one of Holley's pumps, or save a few bucks and get a Summit pump (or Jegs?) that specs like the Holley Black pump. 14psi / 140psi

hey if u want to hold off on buying a spacer and flexplate, i can sell u mine that i have for my 80e. I baught it all brand new. Im getting a hybrid converter for my 80 and ill use the 60e flywheel u gave me. Not sure if the flexplate will work but the spacer will tho. Or u could ditch the whole 400th idea and go 80e and keep the over drive. Just an idea. Hit me up.

well i still am runnin it on the truck. I was gonna get that hybrid converter that JB had, but im runnin kinda low on funds these days. Since im not gettin the converter, i cant sell the flexplate and spacer. But summit sells the spacer for somewhere around $50 bux. It takes a day to get here since they are located in atlanta.
