Around this time the clutch showed up. After many months of waiting I finally decided to just go ahead and do the smart thing. Pucker up and buy a Tilton. Thanks to John Bray @ Evospec for this, and supplying the heavy flywheel option.

I was a little concerned about throttle body positioning with this setup, being that it's a very non-standard combination of parts I had my doubts that an off the shelf Y-Pipe would fit.

Since my original ID1300 injectors had been in the car for a while with E85 we decided to give them a quick flow check/cleaning. Of course Injector Dynamics HQ happens to have a bunch of toys for this.

Of course nothing is ever as easy as you'd think it would be. The engine was about 2-3" too tall with everything on it so I had to take a bunch of stuff off the top to make it fit in the Yukon.

Here's the poor old girl at Cobb Plano. The guys there were very nice to me and can't thank them enough for taking good care of the car during the whole ordeal.

This is where the upper and lower manifold connect. I attempted to use the fancy clamps but they were too wide for the rubber hose connectors. We ended up using factory Porsche clamps.

These use two injectors per cylinder, utilizing a single fuel rail. This simplifies packaging, serviceability, and requires less overall complication in the fuel system.

This one is optioned for use with the factory style 82mm throttle body. You can also get it setup for larger GM throttle bodies.

This is a factory GT3RS 4.0 end tank. I have the part numbers somewhere if people are interested. This is important because the wall thickness on this is such that you won't have any issues, and the extra volume is useful.
