I have set up a page for everyone to follow along in my SC install. I finally got the kit yesterday and took some pics to start the page. Look under personal mods and hit the Vortec SC link. I will also be keeping pics of the heads/manifolds too. The install will be costing me ~ $15 a day (to run the heater).

If you ever fall off the Sears Tower, just go real limp, because maybe you'll look like a dummy and people will try to catch you because, hey, free dummy.

Brad,
Nice pics. Can't wait to see the results .
One thing though, Item #1 is an FMU or Fuel Management Unit. It does not replace the Fuel Pressure Regulator, it works with it. The stock FPR does not work when there is boost present, only vacuum. The FMU raises Fuel Pressure according to boost levels but does not work under vacuum conditions ...from my old days as a 5.0 racer and installing some Paxton and Vortech SC kits.

Later

Mr. Snake,

Same kit for the SVT/Cougar/Contour/Mystique. Installs the same all except the Cougar needs more modifications to the radiator/fan shroud.

Does the kit use bigger injectors or other fuel system upgrades?
