Pretty sure it's for a holley lsx manifold.

Maybe he just got the flanges to make a custom plenum though.
A big forward facing plenum would be cool!

Oh right. I wasn't thinking that the p2r kit was for the holley manifold. I knew that, lol.

Great job so far!!! The attention to detail is amazing!

I plan to use the Wireworx harness as well. Let us know how everything fits and any modification needed if necessary.

Again, great job!

Thank you I appreciate the kind words. I will let you know how the harness works out for sure. Quality is all there I was blown away when I recieved it for sure. Hope it works as well as it looks.

Any updates? Have you connected the harness yet? Do you know what wire-worx did with the VSS and if the speedo will work? If you don't mind saying, how much did your harness run you?

Sick build, again and I look forward to any and all updates!

No havent connected the harness yet. Still collecting the final pieces to the puzzle. Harness was around 1400 all plug and play to the infinity box. Ill be using some sort of aftermarket display racepak most likely. Thanks again

I recently ordered the same fuel rails, along with some other parts from P2R. Let us know how they fit and if any modification is needed. I read on J32A.com that the injectors are a little tight on these rails, and that the holes needed to be chamfered.

man you really need to consider a stepped thinwall header in the future. what size weld els are those? if you are using 1.5" (1.9" OD, 1.75"ID), that runner is too small and will become a very large restriction on the engine regardless how big you make the choke to overcome the restriction

Those headers were for mock up only to see what we would and wouldnt have for room. We are doing a stepped header. Should be finished in a week or two.

This is P2R version 2 fuel rail. All the issues are fixed with this one. I slipped the injectors in today perfect fitment.
