A guy I know is going to get a Drag III Kit for his 98 LS. What eles do you guys suggest to get him running safe?

I suggested:
-Boost Gauge
-Fuel Pump
-SAFC (to tune a/f)
-Vortech FMU 8:1 (or 12:1?)
-Maybe 320 injectors
-Turbo Timer
-Fuel Presssure Gauge

What eles would you suggest. He not planning to run more than 8psi or so.

12:1 FMU
INLINE HIGH PRESSURE fuel pump.

But it still wouldn't be all that safe. SAFE would require a real (read: expensive) fuel system... but this will work.

 

Where can I get a good inline fuel pump and the FMU.

I know this isn't the greatest setup but just to get him buy for now without having a real weak spot in his setup.

Both the FMU and fuel pump come with the drag kit.

 

Cool, didn't know what kinda came with the kit though.

He just wants to have everything in and ready to go when we fire her up.

 

Get a good oil return system too. The drag setup is (to quote brian), "hobo"

 

Suggestions on that? What kinda set-up vs. the drag?

 

I would use a bulkhead fitting on the pan with stainless steel line.

 

personally id go with a do it yourself setup unless you can find someone with a used one with all the stuff you want...
i used a 12:1 fmu, and an inline fuel pump....i took the inline off cuz i was blowing excess gas at idle...still is rich all the way even without it!
