zetec and duratec both have cast iron cranks. svt used forged rods but not forged crank or pistons. from what ive seen so far only one trans made for the bp will hold its potential and thats the miata 6 spd

I hear ya. im waiting for xmas so I can run more psi because im still confused on how to run a return fuel, some say get a fuel cell and don't worry and others say make your own basket to fit in the tank with dual pump......*CONFUSED*

well there is no limit psi wise I guess...its more on just fuel pressure. think of it this way the more psi you put into the engine the more pressure you need to equal the added pressure induced into the engine. most the time people will tell ya that its 350whp that the stock fuel system can handle. I know jim got like 380 on his but he was a freak lol
