I am having someone install it that I know. Then we are gonna throw it on the dyno and get an A/F from the stock tune. I have stainless works long tubes on now and am wondering how the A/f will do with the tune from Ford. Because I have an auto I went with the 6lb non-IC polished version for now but i might buy an 8lb pulley for special occasions.

Just noticed you aren't too far away from me. Where are you having it installed?

I know a guy that lives close to me in Seneca. He did all my current work(full exhaust,gear,motor mounts, torque converter) minus the tune. His buddy has a dyno only a couple blocks away so I wont have to go far to get dynoed.

NOLAGT, FoMoCo,
Congrads to both of you! Looks like both of you were able to run the fuel cross-over line behind the S/C instead of over it. Looks much cleaner

Did you try to see if the Predator would still work with the car to adjust for the 4.10's?

Man I cant wait to get this thing on the motor. What did you guys do to run the fuel cross over line that way? I definitely want it to look the way you guys have done it.

I plan to dress the motor up a bit but thats going to be over a long time....valve covers, nicer pully system, lt's, painted built block...one day! This thing was a blast to install too...I had 2 other friends helping and we took our time and drank along the way!

We ran the fuel line under the blower...there is enough space. Only problem with that is if you have to remove the fuel rail you have to cut that line. That line might also cost a few bucks since its a fuel line. Next time its off and if it doesnt matter I might get one longer and run it behind the blower so it wouldnt have to get cut. BUT it does look MUCH better under not over. I think it says in the instructions to pass it under the blower.

One thing I am thinking now is I mgiht have to remove the fuel rail again! I need to hook up fuel pressure gauge and the spot where the adapter fits is under the intake tube and there is no room. The intake tube actualy has a demple in it to clear the fuel line.

I have a SCT2 that I am going to try to use..if I make the dyno monday we will also be trying to capture the ford tune onto the xcal.

No vid yet but I plan too. The sound is not that loud...well not loud enough to overpower the lack of cats and loud mouths. I am going to swap back to my frpp exhaust so I can hear the blower more...then ill be able to coment on the sound.
