It's a very nice unit and swaps in pretty easy.
First pic is where I cut for the outlet.
Second pic is of the inlet. I have a couple bends ordered so I can fit one there instead of using 90's. It has to reach the pump outlet which is in the pic.

Everything else is plug and play. Even has a new plug for the water pump

I'm considering the Pypes headers. They look good for the price point.

Easy to get into position once the OEM headers were out?

They are very easy to install.
Talk to [MENTION=10926]beefcake[/MENTION]. He will get you set up with exactly what you need

Another cool thing is you can simply bolt on there catted connection pipes if you need to run cats at any point.

Hey everyone. Been super busy at work and life so not much time to concentrate on the Mustang. BUT, all those little hour here...2 hours there over the last several months have added up and SHE CAME ALIVE TONIGHT. Basically gutted the car and tore the timing components all apart so it has been weighing heavy on my mind...what if it doesn't fire up? After doing the OPG and CG...adding a fuel system...swapping transmissions...headers...she woke up without a hitch. I ran it for about 5 seconds just to ease my mind and rotate a bit of oil. Boy am I relieved.

I will have updates and driving impressions posted as I go along.

Goodnight!

Id1050x injectors going in. Not excited about how they fit but as long as they work I will be happy.

Had to grind the corners down on the plugs to clear the cylinder head.
Mine fit perfectly. I have the drivers side facing forward and the passenger side facing rearward. I was worried after reading this mine wouldn't fit either but they dropped right in.

Very nice build .
I can't wait to hear your driving impressions .
Any 1/4 mile times planned ?
I am also planning on a Magnum swap at the same time I swap the 5.0 in my 3.2 KB car for a sleeved 5.2.
Hey did you get your Magnum popped in? What did you use to make the shifter boot look nice? Not a fan of how mine looks. Its decent but im OCD lol

How much did the VMP tripple pass heat changer help? My 2.8 sees IAT's +50 to 60 degrees F in 80 degree weather on 14 psi.

I have datalogs on datazap.me under Beerhasvitamins. I was in the 130's with ambient air temp around 105-110. It works really damn good and recovers immediately.
