I'm back with the motor just about out of the car and to the builder. Should be this weekend or the next. I also plan on keeping the solid rear end and having that built instead of the original IRS swap idea.

Due to hurricane complications and other time constraints I had to put the project on hold but am now proceeding forward.

I have a plan for what I would like to do after going through a few different ideas but once again would appreciate some help.

I know if you read through this thread the question of E85 comes up and I can assure you I plan on running it now. There are quite a few pumps in my area with reliable quality.

My next topic for help would be mods supporting mods for the motor;
Engine Mods:
TVS 2.65
L2Fab truck mount intercooler
Kooks 1 3/4 LT headers

Fuel Mods:
Looking to go with the L4 Fore Return style with dual 465s but unsure of options past that?
For injectors I saw that ID1300x needed a different PCM so I was thinking I would stick to ID1050x or if someone had other suggestions that would be great.

Transmission:
T-56 is working fine but I think I will order and install a Magnum to be on the safe side and keep the regular T-56 and drive shaft as a back up.

I am so looking for clutch suggestions.

Thanks for the help guys and stay safe.

Bought a Fore Triple Pump return style kit from a member on the forum and the car is in our shop and almost ready for the lift.

Still fighting with my Uncle about E85 but plan on running it. Planning on learning about injectors and sourcing those next.

A big thank you to all who have replied so far. This community is cool.

Hello and welcome back Bs and Gs,

Here for an update to the build.

So I currently have the motor to the builder and almost every other supporting mod purchased and ready for install. Waiting on the intake stuff and exhaust but for the most part, almost there. It's been an expensive year but we're close.

I have an appointment tomorrow with the builder to iron out specifics but it should be more than capable of my goals. If anyone has any insight to built motors or for what I'm up to, feel free to chime in.
