Default Here we go again......

Well my fellow monte brothers, winters a coming, and I got another itch. I never did make it to the elevens this year ..*pout* .. so I'm taking the monte in the garage for the winter and trying for next year. I'll be putting 65 # injectors and new fuel pump, regulator, better head gaskets, and arp bolts, maybe a cam, etc. I'm planning on 20-24 psi for boost and not sure where that will put me. I'm hoping for high tens but probably end up somewhere in the 11's. So after a winter of knuckle busting and cursing and lint left in my pockets we'll see. Anyone got any ideas for me? I'm having issues with which fuel pump I'm going to go with. The walboro 255 won't suck my tank dry leaving me with about a 1/4 tank when I run out of gas. I'm told since mine was a NA car it doesn't have the canister compatibility to hook it up to suck the tank dry. I still want mine a daily driverof course(even though I can only have 12psi on the street with pump gas). Have any of you heard of a better pump out there? Or does anyone know where to get a L67 canister setup without paying a arm and a leg? Anyway, I'm going to check with Ed morad too but thought with all the monte addicts here you guys mighthave heard something..lol..

I'll post pictures of my progress and scars..lol

it's modeled off of the Camaro SS hoodscoop, but its a fiberglass hood and with the functinal box from SLP, can be made into real ram air. wooooo...... i don't have one myself (as you can see below) but i have looked into them.
