Not to thread jack but does anyone know where/if the V2 is still available i remember i was looking at a tuner kit for $3750 but i havent been able to find another tuner kit. Personally id rather have the oil drain so i dont have to deal with changing the SC oil seperatly

Yes it should still be available. You might need to contact a vortech dealer for best pricing.

This gets in the way like crazy as well since the coupler wants to rest right here.

Put the fuel pump in today wasn't hard at all. Almost seemed too easy really. Walbro nubs were already filed for me and I didnt have to file anything on the top part.

Waiting on 90 Degree 3.5" to 4" coupler and the 45 degree aluminum pipe to get to the wheel well should be here soon.

The intermediate cast aluminum pipe looks like its installed backwards. Flat side should face towards engine and the part # casted in pipe should be on top. Conventional wisdom would put flat side towards frame.

Yes that is my engine in the Avatar, It follows along the same details as does the chassis. Will post my build thread soon, battling some health issues and hoping to finish current build this fall.

Yeah I am noticing that hardest part of install is the cast iron pipe. Word of advice dont get ahead of self. Once the mounting bracket is mounted there is no space between that and pulley. Almost got it hotrod is right with how it goes
