Ooh contenders! I'm gonna make a call out thread lol. I'm still waiting on pushrods, valve covers, and coolant reservoir. Plus I still need to change injector clips for the Id2000's. after that I might be able to put it in the engine bay.
Currently out in the shop trying to figure out what's wrong with the transbrake. Grrrrr.

I think a couple pages back I posted up pics of how I'm doing it. There's a single -10 feed that runs into the back of the engine. It then Y's into twin -8's (one per rail.) then off the front of the rails there are twin -8's that 90 out and run beneath the manifold to the regulator, and then from regulator to -6 return line.

I finally got pushrods ordered today. That was a 2 day ordeal. The measurement came out to 7.955" which gives me .030655" preload cold and ~.023" preload hot. Thankfully that gives .003" of wiggle room for the pushrod ball ends to be off. What an awful job to do when Lunati calls for .020-.030" of preload min/max
