Any reason your not eliminating the nose cone mount? and just run a midmount ?
Or run both. Seems like it could do with all the help it can get.
I’ll run both. Both rigid

I haven’t made the mid mount yet, so needed to mount the transmission, hence the nose mount.
I’ll redo a rubber mid mount, so it bolts to a gusseted plate on the frame horns.

Mine is just solid front, rear, and a Moore Mount in the mid. Broke a hockey stick last season, but that was just cuz I'm super buff
Never had any other issues with it. I do think I've had some clutch slippage over the years though. I'll probably break the trans in half this season with the new clutch setup

Did you end up with some 2000cc injectors?
Yup. 2200cc Bosch
I grabbed some as well. Not sure I'll even be able to get my car to idle with them, but I'll probably give them a shot at some point.

I hope they’ll work fine. If they are lumpy on idle, it’s ok.

It made 399hp and ~550nm (~410ft lbs) to the wheels last time. 10% more would be great!
