Where do I get 55/65/75's? How big should I go? Where do I buy a TwEECer?

They're too busy fighting one another to give me any help, I already asked them. Some are telling me to MAF/MS it and others are saying TwEECer and others are saying I should s the whole thing and stick a stock motor in a notchback Mustang with a Holset. *sigh*

What about the CFI injector route?

Claude has a good point. 

You can modify some of the CFI injectors to work. They are 42 or 46# I think for the 5.0's.
I know I saw a few for sale there on TF a week or so ago. 

That is your cheapest mild upgrade.  That will give you a little more breathing room.

You can get it from them direct or through an authorized dealer.

Just a clarification, I wasn't clear enough in saying the WGA broke to due to outside cirspoogestances. It wasn't Scott's fault in any way. I just want to pay him to redesign it stronger for me.

Summit box arrived last night! The catch can is a little "under-equipped". Basically, the bolts that hold it down go into the can (can you say "leaks") and there was only 1 fitting, but 2 holes. Oh well, the breather on top and the siphon on the bottom are awesome and it was worth the money. So I'm thinking, plug the intake PCV outlet, run a line from the block where the breather is to 1 hole in the can, and another line from the valve cover to the can. No need for any PCV valves or vacuum leaks. Sound good?

And either Summit or I made a mistake on the gauge, I got a SILVER 0-35 psi Ultra-Lite PRO COMP gauge! MUCH nicer then the one I thought I ordered. :D

And the head is now at the machine shop, cross your fingers...

That's how they're usually hooked up from what I've seen.

I had wanted to run an oil catch can but I couldn't find a good open spot on the driver's side to mount it. Where are you putting yours?

I'm not sure yet. It's actually a pretty compact little can. Since I have the original airbox and charcoal can gone and the A/C is gone, I might mount it to the passenger front area and just have long lines. Summit said longer lines tends to prevent a lot of headaches. I have to give it some thought.

I thought about mounting mine to the pass. side but figured it'd be a pain in the ass with those lines running all the way over to the other side of the engine bay.
