Last night I purchased a set of MAZDA oil control O-rings.. I have yet to decided if I am going to use the Mazda ones on this build or the Viton.. last build I used the Viton rings..
 
Hey got my black dragon catalog last night. The carpet they sell does not have any holes precut so the storage box holes are not in them
 
I got my parts today (almost all of them)

I received

Side seals
Side seal springs
Corner seals
Corner seal springs
FD oil pump
oil pump chain
oil control ring springs
RE fuel rails
both engine housings..

now for the funny part...

I opened up the engine housings and one says REJECT right on it where the housing has a mark in it.. so now I have to wait until they send me another new housing. lol

pics to come tonight..
 
Ok I just bought:

2 720cc injectors (going on the primary rail)
2 1500cc injectors (going on the secondary rail)

Also just bought my OEM Mazda apex seal springs (all 12 BRAND NEW)

sounds like you are looking to turn the boost up this time. that fuel system should easily support 15 psi with plenty left over.
