I have heard plenty of success stories from the sump kit and, as we discussed on the phone John, I have more experience with fuel cells in our race cars then in tank fuel pickup systems.

Had a little fun at the track last night. Only got one good run in. Car threw a hissy fit for the 2nd pass.
Was easy on the launch and 1st gear getting a feel for the tire grip.

I voted for staying sc and gave my thoughts
Finally got around to pulling the valve cover off after the track last week. Another lifter bit the dust and exploded on us HAHA! We got lucky. The rocker fell down the timing chain area but didn't damage anything from what I can see.

Familywagon, if you change the rockers make sure that the valve spring retainers clear the rockers at full lift. Japetr, to answer your question. You are always in a quest for big power.
If thats your quest, even in your wildest dreams you cant match an LSJ s/c to an LSJ t. The s/c just sucks up 100 hp driving itself.
So for a man of your desires and capabilty, check in with ARM for hardware, and AREA for tuning and you will be satisfied. PLUS you can get very good bux for your TVS....

just purchased a tvs and 1000cc injectors... maybe you can figure out who i bought them from 
heres the goal: 350-375whp on E85
Ive been trying to do some research on what pulley size and fuel mods i will need to achieve this (i already have all the basic bolt ons; intake, header, dp, exhaust, dual pass, s3 heat exchanger, etc...)
The tvs has a 2.6 on it currently, do i just need to buy a zzp BRFPS?

Nice grab!!
If you pulley up to a 2.7 or 2.8 you'll put less strain on the fuel system and keep thr blower more efficient. Since you have 1k's, you have some head room.
My suggestion is since the TVS makes peak power the higher you rev it, install some valve springs and use the bigger pulley. You'll make less trq but hit your hp goal.
If you want the bigger kick, buy the Brfps and keep the 2.6 or 2.5 and enjoy trq and hp
