                This is a great build man! I'm also in the process of shoving a 5.0 in my cabrio. :) I may be buging you with questions now. haha How do you plan on running your heater hoses? I've heard that the engine blocks the hoses in the firewall.

                    You have to cut the lines flush with the firewall and clamp the hoses from inside the car. I'm not sure I'm running them though lol

                        I did this and I'm pretty sure It wasn't necessary. It looks like a slight bend would have sufficed. Pretty mad I did it now, because it is going to make heat a bitch to set up. I imagine it all depends on the valve covers.

                              Got the MSD box wired up and it runs.

                              Only problem is the fuel pump. Has anyone safely ran the stock pump on a carb? My Holley FPR seems to only be knocking the pressure down to about 11 psi. I'm also pretty new at wiring. Does anyone know where I run the fuel pump wire to from the c101 connector?
