Update 13

Posted On September 20, 2016

I was having fuel starvation issues going up my hill when I had 5 gallons or less of gas in the tank. My hill to my house is very steep and my fuel pickup was sucking in air and stalling out my car. I have a walbro 450 and found that holly makes a hydramat that fits the pump directly yay! So I bought a hydramat Install is very easy if you remember when you installed your pre-pump filter its exactly the same. For me it went:
1. Take pump out.
2. Take old filter off the pump.
3. Place hydramat onto the fitting of the pump.
4. Place pump back in.

Here is a picture I couldn’t really get a pic of it installed in the tank it comes with a wide range of locking clips so you can pick lots of different angles for the hydramat to be installed. (Link: to what I bought https://www.holley.com/products/fuel…s/parts/16-111)

Finally got my floor remounted. Started to get carpet cut and my infinity box mounted. I have always been building my car around serviceability since the start. I mounted my firewall with the rivnuts along the top so it could be undone quick. I have also installed my carpet using industrial outdoor Velcro. I placed the “hard” side of the Velcro onto the firewall after that I just installed the carpet directly onto the velcro. You don’t actually need both side just need the one “hard” side it grabs great with no issues its quick and easy to remove as well. I bought some basic indoor out door black carpet from Menards. Its very light, looks good, and does not have a hard back on the carpet so its very light weight and if you really want to you can quickly remove it before you go to the track haha.

I also made a mounting board for my infinity box that sites in the middle between the 2 seats. Used some twist locks for the mounting. Again this was made so I could quickly remove if needed.
