No problem, i'd be glad to answer your questions.
1. Scroll down for pictures
2. The mounts are custom made by Fueled with polyurethane inserts. Very high quality and hold up at high speeds. I've taken the car to 150+MPH on the track and had no issues what so ever.
3. Theres at least 2-3 inches of clearence between the pully and the stock 350z radiator. However, make sure that you use F body(camaro/firebird) and GTO accessories because Corvette accessories will not fit in the Z.
4. The basic kit allows you to properly mount the drivetrain in the car. You will need to due the wiring but it pretty easy if you get the wiring harness along with the LS motor at the time of purchase.
5. You have the option to wire up the stock cluster, however I went with aftermarket guages.
6. You also have the option to have AC, however, I dont know much about that since I did not want AC anyways.
7. We had no install issues what so ever, the kit makes the drivetrain a direct bolt on. No cutting or welding requires, they designed the kit in a way that makes the swap look like a factory option.
8. We chose to run a throttle cable since it was the simplest way to go and less things to go wrong in the long run.
9. I will post up some quick pictures that were taken a while back. Let me know if you have any more questions.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!! I am really interested in this kit. I have been playing phone tag with Fueled Racing this last week at work. Just want to get some independent info because this is such a new kit.
Do they provide any instructions or pin out for the wiring harness and general install?
Are the fasteners all stainless?
How much power are you putting down at the wheel with that cam and long tube headers?

I personally think its the best kit on the market, I have no complains what so ever. Im not sure about instructions, you may need to talk to Fueled about that. They get hundreds of calls a day and are very busy so if for any reason you don't get a hold of someone, leave a message with your number and they will get back to you.
Fasteners are stainless ofcourse. We are making 450whp and 440ft lb torque.

Very cool, what did you end up doing with the knuckles? You were saying you had problems with the KPR. I have a friend who bought a set when they were still in business (I heard they went out of business not positive though) and he said he would sell them to me for a good price, but I don't want to buy garbage...
Besides that the car looks great!
