    Don't know what the dude's malfunction was but I'm happy things are moving forward with the car, the ITB's are a personal favorite. Glad life is moving forward again for you and your family and I hope you guys find solace after the tragedy you have suffered.

        You have your whole life to straighten your back.

        Get the box on, get on a dyno, and give me your dataaa.

                  Planning on lifting motor, is that possible or is there some secret way to install it?

                      I'm very interested in the HP numbers with this setup.

                        Lifting it did make it easier. I had to shim the driver's motor mount an eighth. Other than that I followed the guide.

                        Is that the master link/throttle cable setup yours came with?

                          I think RHD shared a video of this guy's car on facebook yesterday

                          It put down 180whp and 166wtq.

                            Not again! Now I need to plan on saving money for RHD ITBs again.

                              Yup. Thank you for your generous rounding.

                              I'm very interested in what the setup will make with a 274, more cubes and some top end porting ;D

                                Well, my 2.8 build with a 284/272 cam and headers made 180whp 180wtq on a street tune with basically no porting (only exhaust gasket match) and stock intake manifold. I'd imagine a 2.8 with a ported head, these ITBs and a proper tune would easily be over 200whp.
