i have decided to go this route:

-holley in tank 255LPH
-b&m command flo
-MSD 6AL
-MSD Blaster 2 or 3
-MSD pro cap
-turbo XS MBC
-Autometer fuel press gauge
-Autometer oil press gauge
-in-dash pod

i will push 8 psi. i'm gonna get it dyno tuned or EG/O2 tuned with the V-AFC and fuel pressure setting. i will install everything myself. it will cost me close to $1K, including tuning. what do u think? peace.....

Nice choices.

The only difference between the Blaster 2 & Blaster 3 is the tower height. The 3 is taller. It might be easier to find a place to mount the 2, but I don't know what your bay looks like (space wise). There's no volt difference....

The 6AL is a monster. You might have more room than I did being that you have a SOHC. I ended up putting mine in the cabin on the passengers side.

Good luck. Let us know how it turns out.

yeah, it is quite big. i'm thinking of installing it inside the car myself. or relocate the battery somewhere else. i'll find a way tho. thanks man.......

xbird,
i already have a deal with one of the shops down here. i'll get some tuning discount from them if i get the stuff from them. that is mainly the reason. plus, they also offer me some dyno time.....

I mounted mine inside. My website has some pics of it... www.siscom.net/~jdoles
You will hate it at first..... It makes a ticking noise. But I don't notice at all any more. It leaves more room for mods in the bay anyhow.....:yes:
