I've got some progress...
In tank fuel system:
It's dual walbro 255 lph (with check valves) into 3/8 fuel line into aeromotive y-block into -8 AN which then upsizes to my -10 main fuel lines after the bulkhead. I haven't finished the wiring for the second pump (activated at 4 psi of boost with a hobbs switch).

I think that you need a third pump

It is a sumped stock tank.
And I doubt I will be doing any wheelies with the current tires/suspension, but that would be pretty sweet (until I landed).
Also, FWIW, I never run below 1/4 tank, habit from using Walbros forever.

I'm tired of seeing pictures of Blake's ricey *** car...
j/p
I'm always impressed by your attention to detail bro. I can't wait to see it in action this summer.

The y block in the picture is an aeromotive part. ~25 dollars if memory serves.
Tony, you going to have your car all put back together and healthy? If so, please don't break it racing Tool2 again. We need to get a gathering of all the clean RX7s in town sometime, and get some pictures. Hopefully Nick's car will be ready by then too.

I'll share a few pics...
Suspension is all done now, minus the drivers side front, which had a bent LCA. My new one should be here soon.
BTW, Tony, I sold the long block for $850, to a guy that was having it streetported, and everything was good to go on the inside... Still got the trans here and a 4.10 diff if any one wants them? Or I'll trade the 4.10 for an FD 3.90.

He's using the Samberg mounts, and they're freaking pieces of art.
I think he's got some good pictures of them, some of the nicest automotive parts I've ever seen, fo' sho'
My Aeromotive pump and regulator showed up today. I'll get the tank from Azar next week sometime and start on the fuel system, then it's just waiting on Jet-Hot to get my parts and I can reassemble the car and see if it works.

It's nothing special, just a 6.0L iron block out of a GMC 2500 truck, along with the heads I'm using. Here's some pics of the short block. I tore it down and took it into work and had it honed, line honed, and decked, as well as had the crank degreased, straightened, and polished. Just got all that back so I'll be putting most of the long block together over the long weekend:
I can't find the pics I took of the subframe, trans mount, and diff mount pics right now, they might still be on the camera.
