It'll be close... the mounting shouldn't be bad but where the hose routes on the drivers side might be a problem.
) in here last week, but I forgot lol.. Looks solid can't wait to see it finished!

I gotta catch up to you!
Given the build list above, how aggressive can I get on the tune with E85 and a 2.87? I'm starting to wonder if I even want to keep going the E85 route or just run race gas instead. Car won't ever be driven on the streets, bought a trailer.

MBT is minimum best timing. Its the point where adding more timing causes your horsepower to decrease.
ANy proper tune should be to MBT, which is octane limited mostly. You wont be octane limited with E85 so you keep adding timing until you stop making power.
I'd bet you could go out to 25* or so and still make power.

^ thanks.
So I'm putting in my DW850's right now and I have a question about the injector clips. There are no places for my clips to hook onto on the DW's? Do I need them? Weird thing is, my old DW's were basically the same size as stock. These are way tall.
Also, I'm replacing all my factory intake gaskets. Ridge side goes down right, to prevent oil blow by?
