the picture of the pistons are JE pistons that went in the motor, the picture of the top of the head is the return fuel system made from the stock fuel rail, the picture of the motor all together in front of the car is ready to go back in and the max rev polished manifold is bolted on, as the motor sits on the floor it has a 7.2-7.8 to 1 compression ratio, and the intercooler is a greddy type 31

So let me get this straight. You have JE piston with stock rods, a custom intake manifold, and a return fuel system. And you used a Greddy 31 intercooler. I thought the 24 was better. And to top it off you said you spend $14,000 for a custom motor build from Basz racing. I know Tim rips people off but damn man. I hope you have more to show for it.

Heres the link regarding your motor build up. on page 3
Please tell me you did not pay $14,000 for Basz Racing to install pistons, return fuel system, and an intake manifold.

first of all redvic can kiss my ***, 14 grand was a bit large of a number, by the end i will have only gave basz 8. there is no intake manifold, its stock the only thing different between the intercoolers is size 31 is smaller than 24, derricks ITR has type 24, i dont think tim rips people off, he has set prices on every job and other than that its 70 bucks an hour

So what kit did you get? Maxrev? How much psi are you going to run? I for one have seen Basz Racing over charge people. Although that do good work. I've seen Derric's car and it is nothing but awesome. When is your vic going to be done? I'd love to stop by Basz Racing and see it.

bore the rail or wait for a aftermarket one to come out, then have to tap it and put metal fittings in that and then ull have to tap the tank and use a fuel hose or steel braided line and run it back to the tank, something to that extent
