Clay has another parts list at the following URL:

You'll want to cross reference the things that come in Jons kit that he also
lists there in order to not duplicate anything.

Good idea.

Any of the larger-style older vehicle Tstats will work.

I first picked up one for a 73 Barracuda then dumped that one for an
o-ringed chevy piece from Poop-Boys since it was cheaper, on the shelf, and
much better quality. Over 500 miles later with no leaks and I didn't even
have to use a gasket since it was o-ringed.

Sometimes they have this one listed as 4897383ab - not sure why - my parts
guy said the ab was the '99 number and '00 it is ac - weird???

Don't worry Ted - look at it this way: Now that you'll be running the M1
(MPI), you can even pick up a cheap used N20 kit from any ole swap meet
cause you can now use the std 4bbl flange kits... (except for some minor
changes to the rail mounting setup)
While we are on the subject... check these fuel rails out:

They will do away with all the rail mounting issues and allow easier N20
plate installation. Kinda costly tho - therefore I'll be fabbing up mine in
good ole home-brew fashion. Ideas never hurt 8-))
