Update....

I hate my car.

Cylinder #7 appears to have a dead injector or a dead coil. Easy fix...just not cheap.
I have driven my car. Just not more than about 45 minutes of total run time yet. The last month has seen about nothing get done. F'ing cold.
I was running WAY lean on most cylinders...thank god I didn't truely get on it. I had a nasty vacuum leak inbetween the heads and the intake. My own fault too....forgot that the stock LS1 valley cover bolts can't be used with the FAST intake. OR....it holds the intake up just a hair. Must have been tired/drunk when I put those bolts in.
Right now....
New lower height FAST bolts are in.
New fuel filter is in.
Plugs need re-installed.
Intake needs re-installed.
True duals are hung up.
Base performance tune is on the car.
I still have 2 months before Bandimere opens up....so if I get even a little work done over the next month I will be happy.

Duals....in the tightest spot....the UMI tunnel braced torque arm.
They aren't mandrel bent. Probably a loss of 2-3 HP. Which I can take.


Underhood....green wire is for a gauge not connected yet....


Should have more soon. 3 day weekend....should have the intake, plugs, etc all back on.
Discuss.

Re: Update....

did you try TV's "WORK!!!!" method... I'm sure you'd shave off at least a few hours.

Re: Update....

Looks really clean. I think i'll have my engine cleaned sometime soon.

Sorry to hear about all the bad luck. I'm sure you'll get everything running in time for Bandimere Raceway. Just don't expect to run 11's at that track, as it's altitude will suck the power out of that engine.

Not looking for 11's here. Mid 12 at around 115 MPH though.
