Blah blah blah blah, lets see what this weekend brings. Some of us don't have the luxury of a open schedule to run at saturday races and with a one income household it makes alittle difference in days off.

**** LOL, your one income is probably triple my wife and I... but I digress

Get it done this weekend... bigger headers= more airflow, should be able to make more power just from that. Now stop screwing around and give it all it's got. No excuses, it's either 175 mph to the 1/8th, or I want to see the crank on the ground from trying.

Now get to work

I don't want to see the crank on the ground, it took way too long to get in the first place.

If I could ever get the time, energy and money all at the same time, I'd be running Top Fuel.
When you have the money, you don't have the time or energy left from getting the money.
When you have the time, you don't have any money from not working all day, every day.

You're all nuts. I don't care which class. Anything going 200 in the 1/8 or 1/4 needs a 17" slick!!

Fuel distribution manifold is basically the center piece of your fuel system for injectors that have screw-on fittings. Fuel comes into the block and you would use SS hose to run fuel from the distribution block to the injectors. Basically you'll have braided hose to each injector.

Fuel distribution block looks killer. What size hose is running to each injector, and how are those injector's held into the intake, screw in like the hose on the top I assume?

Intake looks badass for sure... should have plenty of volume
