First time I have seen this. This is going to be amazing when you get it done. I do have a question for you though concerning this.

It is my understanding that a 2005 900 engine will bolt into a 2006 but not vise versa. Why not use a 2005 900 engine for this with your newer bulkhead since the 05 2 injector engine runs 58 psi fuel pressure? Then there would be no issue with the fuel pump and if you needed a replacement it would be an off the shelf part.

Right line of thinking... not as easy as it sounds though... Especially with a revised steering arrangement.

This has been a tough year for me... I have not had time to work on my own projects which is a bummer... I hope to get the momentum rolling soon.

Thanks for the interest.

Guido... you already are doing it the right way... your build is awesome!!

I thought I read somewhere in one of biggdawgs post that the newer steering post didn't interfere with the injectors on the 05 engine, but the the 06 engine would in no way go into an 05 chassis because the post hit the injectors.

Yup, I will take a VE tunnel anyday, Or a Fabcraft.
