    Make sure your Coolant temp sensor in the water pump is reading correctly. This sensor can cause overheating as it is what the PCM uses to turn the fans on as well as A/F ratios and enrichment.

    Impressive numbers! That will surprise a lot of folks for sure. You planning on running it at the strip? It should mph really well (~127mph or so).

    1) If you are going twins and big power you will want to run a y-block to your rails both feed (two inlets for feed, two for return into regulator). I would size these at -8 or -10 to the rails. ...
