Bitchin'. has the DP and muffler survived being so close to the tarmac? Exactly what I want to do only with an on/off road direction.
Good work.

So far so good. Ive scraped it a couple times on some big bumps but its all good. I figured it would dent up to where it needs to be lol. I don't know if any of you guys know or have heard of a guy named J.R. Crosby ( he wrote a book called "how to turbo your engine") but he was up here in Idaho tuning a guy I know car and he saw my truck and came over and took a look and he was pretty impressed and gave me allot of good pointers on turbocharging of stuff I wouldn't have even thought of . I'm going to pick up his book when I get time its on amazon.com if your Interested.

Why did you decide on walbro 400's if you are going to run E85?

I thought the 400's were the same pump as the 450's except the 450's were rated for e85 and the 400's weren't..?

Nope. The 450s flow a tad more.

My single 450 is done at 12 psi on e85. I'm guessing around 600 rwhp or so. 2 should be good for bg power.
