how much boost? i'd try .035 and see how that does and lower it from there if needed. you want to have it where you don't get spark blowout and the higher the gap the better for performane and mpg

I am assuming with the FE5/Pro-Kit that I am around 1 to 1.5". Brags your saying that I need to shave a bit off the rear mount? What exactly needs to be shaved?

I will get rotated mounts when money allows, wife just finally went back to work since our daughter is 6months old now.

You will def see it, there is a ridge from casting that you need to get rid of along with a little more.
