Looks like you've got the bases covered as far as the plan. Will definitely enjoy following the build.

Picked up a set of GT500 rails from a guy on Ebay yesterday. They are not needed for the kit, but make the install better because of the crossover location, and they look better

Total cost - $65

Small update-ish

Blower, rails, elbow, and injectors came in over the weekend. Glad I picked up a newer blower as I like the silver color. Blower has maybe 2k miles on it

Parts pile has started! (The box has the GT500 pumps inside

Nice looking blower. I agree the silver is going to look great.

Thanks! Should be pretty fun. I love hunting down parts so its been a blast thus far.

Picked up the GT500 TB with electronics. Now I need to answer 2 questions:

1) Will my stock TB hardware work for the GT500

2) Regardless of the answer to #1, I'll be getting new hardware anyway and need to know what to get so I can piece it all together

OP updated with prices

I'm sure the hardware for the TB is on this page

http://www.fordpartsgiant.com/Page_P...96,23933,28761

$0.63 a bolt I love that site for finding part numbers because each page has a nice diagram view when u click on "Get Info" next to Parts Listing
