Default Just Got Back From Zimmeys WOW!

Well I was talking with delton and going over everything. Well this is what my common rail is going to have.

I am going to stack my edge with the smarty. we are going with the fass 150/150-1008, Super B South bend Double disc clutch 3650 plate load. I was going to use the Con FE single! But he had so many there that were trashed. I was told they tend to weld them selves togeter when they slip. The ofe would be better they dont but thats less hp that it holds. BD high Ram intake. Full set of the new Spek gauges and pillir mount. Head stud kit. To do the head stud kit he is going to remove the head machine the head and better gasket. Instead of doing one at a time. 6" chrome aussies that i am going to cut down. I am still turning this in my head if this is the way i want to go. What does everyone think? Am i going over bored or is this sound like a reliable set up?

you mean delton?

I have to find out .

Ya we talked about the injectors but the common rail doesnt really need them but it would help i guess. dalton said with the stack of the edge and the smarty it will be fine i was going to do a set of 90 hp injectors but he said dont need them hummm anyone agree disagree

Better head gasket?? What are you going to use besides the stock one. The stock 3rd gen gaskets are doing very well. Unless you are having problems why take your head off and change head gasket? Just my thoughts, I would just put the studs in. Also let me know how you like the spek gauges, look nice but WOW, the prices I seen on them.
I never have any problem with my FE before I went DD. Used It for close to 90K miles.

Thats what i was thinkin about the head gasket!? Why change it?
Do injectors too while your at it cause u will want to add them later anyway, nice choice of clutch, did u go with the sprung hub? And its a 3600 not 3650 or did u mean the 3250?
My 3600 Sprung is on its way!!
Maybe look to do a Arson cp3 kit also!
