Default engine build

on my last deployment i pieced together a vortech s-trim with all the parts needed including an anderson power pipe and a blow-thru style maf. also i bought a set of MHS stage 2 heads alone with cms stage 3 blower cams. tomorrow i will be purchasing the MMR 4.75se 750 short block with upgraded M2500R pistons. I am also ordering the edelbrock intake manifold to go with it. the new engine should be going in in a few weeks after i receive the short block and intake manifold. i will also be spraying on top of my vortech s-trim. i am also going with 3" piping for the exhaust and dynomax race bullet mufflers (dumped). i am tired of having flow masters on my car. after everything is installed she's going to get tuned and a fresh paint job. i cant wait for her to be done. i will keep y'all posted

spraying nitrous (100shot) still undecided on the fuel setup, right now i have 42lbs injectors and a svt focus fuel pump, i know its not going to be enough fuel so I'm still trying to figure out what to do there, and I'm still looking around for a tranny. she won't be done for a while, i am deploying again in june. it will all be done when i get back. i was just happy about the parts i am getting so i wanted to share

Yeah sure will be a fun ride and congrats on the new parts I know that's gotta be exciting. But 42lbers wont be enough ur gonna need 60+ lbers since ur running spray and boost. But be safe on ur deployment make sure u make it home safe and goodluck

Honestly you will probably want 80# injectors, atleast. Smart move on the YSI as well. Hell, 15psi? Run 25+
