Thanks guys for all the positive comments!
I have a world class T5 trans in the car now with Spec stage 2 clutch and flywheel.

Right now I'm working on intergrating the 5.0 harness into the Bmw body harness. This should be done by this weekend with pics to post. I just ordered some headers just so i can have a 2nd passanger side one cuz the driver side exhuast is getting dumped forward so if anyone needs I have a extra driver side. I didn't want to deal with the 3 point steering shaft idea I had when this is a much cheaper and easier solution to that.

Got the driver side header in and Abs tilted and mounted out of the way last night. I had to use two passanger side headers so I don't have to deal with a 3 point steering shaft. Everything seems to come together ok so far besides the fact that the guy that sold me the motor desides to put spray painted injecters with no O rings in my motor.
Will ford racing 24lb injecters work on my stock motor just to get running? later on I want to supercharge this car so I figure since my 19lbs ones are shot I might as well upgrade right?

How do I go about calibrating it to the m.a.f? Also.. why is there a air valve on the fuel rail?

To help bleed air and easily check or hook up fuel pressure gauge.

You probably don't need the 24's yet......

i'd go with a 70mm TB

73-76mm maf....

that will work well for you.....
