you do need a custom fuel rail also

No...about 250hp initially. &nbsp;370cc injectors for now if they fit the stock fuel rail. &nbsp;(Do they?) &nbsp;I'll upgrade to 50lb./custotm fuel rail later when I get some more money saved up. &nbsp;However, if the 370cc injectors don't fit the stock fuel rail, I'll go ahead and get the bigger injectors &nbsp;and custom rail.

How much can I expect to spend on getting it o-ringed?
Pistons have yet to be ordered. &nbsp;I'm gonna wait until I can look at the cylinder walls and see if they require boring to round them out or smooth them up. &nbsp;If so, it will be minimal.

whoa now...only got $6K budgeted remember. &nbsp;That sounds like some major cash. &nbsp;I wouldn't think it would require all that when there's guys out there running 300hp on completely stock internals/bottom. &nbsp;How much would all that cost?
</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">as for fuel regulator. u dont need one because the JWT fuel setup covers it. but runs a little rich. the fuel regulator is great on the dyno which you can adjust the fuel pressure to make the airfuel ratio perfect for the best horsepower.</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>
So I'm assuming the JWT setup is versatile enough to let me run a little rich w/o one, but can still install an adjustable one later when I get ready to dyno tune.

If you haven't noticed, I'm trying make this as cheap as possible w/o taking any detrimental shortcuts. &nbsp;I'd like to have enough left over to do a front Z brake upgrade to help me control the extra power. &nbsp;When I'm done with it, I'd like to have it running safely around 250hp to the wheels, but fairly easily be able to attain my power goal with a little more time/and money over the next year or so. &nbsp;What do you think?
thanks
