Ok guys, after 100+ hours of research and talking to several respected owners/tuners/vendors, I'm looking for a little more advise/info to finish assembling parts, and details for installing VMP 2.3 and Fore L3 fuel system.
Thanks to everyone here. Without this forum I would have had no idea on the best ways to do this.(Special thanks...Malcolm, TRBOVNM, 04Sleeper)
Please chime in with any tips/advise...point to threads....anything I may be missing...etc
Many times using search I get error message when trying to find answers.
For fuel, I'll be getting Fore L3 kit w/Hobbs switch to stage pumps, FC3 controller triggered by wire from FDPM.
Plan is to run feed to regulator in passenger side fender, then feed the rear of each rail from regulator.
I know I've read somewhere in the threads what line and size "T" to use for boost reference/source for regulator and Hobb's switch, but was hoping someone could advise me here. Fore salesman said 3/16" nipple comes on Hobbs switch.
1. correct line to use? DOT air hose size?
2. what size "t" fittings? Size nipple for Hobbs switch?
3. best way to get signal/tap into FPDM to trigger 1st pump? Would like to not cut wires if possible. (i've seen photos somewhere)
4. best way(s) to mount regulator? What did you use for bracket?
5. Belt size and recommendations, stock lower, 3 x 100mm, 1 x 90mm, and 3.0 pulley?
I hope to get 2 tunes(pump93 and e85). For now the car will be on 93, but I want to be able to run e85 next season.
Build:
VMP 2.3 w/GT500 TB 3.0 pulley
80lb injectors
Fore L3 return fuel system w/staged Walbro F90000267 450 LPH E85 fuel pumps
SCT BA3000
JLT RAI
Gords HE
Metco double bearing idlers 100x3, 90x 1
Metco tensioner support plate
**car has OE headers, Magnaflow o/r X w/cats and Magnaflow cat back
