stay tuned , more progress updates in a few days!

Would like to know details of what you did to your wiring harness to instal guages and eliminate indicators. I take it you have no smog laws in Fla. Here if a code is thrown you fail smog.

Wondering if you are throwing any codes with your harness changes since you are using the stock PCM. I want to copy you if I can still do it legally.

PS. I'll even give you money for copies of your schematics. :-)

no computer = no codes

complete wiring schematics from alldata a power probe and an ohm meter, tied in new gauges through bulk head connector via factory wiring, was time consuming but its clean and I didnt have to by a wiring harness since I basically made a new one out of the stock harness by eliminating all the stuff I didnt need, fuel injection , air bags, o2 sensors all the smog crap, and a few other cicuits I didnt wnt like cruise controll, ecm,

had to pull motor out due to low oil pressure, so its back to the machine shop, for a repair,

getbent · 11-25-2010, 01:46 AM

should know more come monday

getbent · 12-01-2010, 08:56 PM

well its bad news at the machine shop I ate up the #6&8 lobe on the flat tappet cam, everything else looks ok so Im gonna perlace with a hydr roller and go from there, should be rebuilt by the end of next weekish, I must admit the low pressure was a bummer, hopefully round 2 goes better!

spudz · 12-01-2010, 10:29 PM

damn man that sux!

benoit454 · 12-01-2010, 11:22 PM

did you build the motor? if not and you bought it or had it built take it back to them and make them eat it. no reason an all new motor should have low oil pressure much less wipe a lobe off.

91rcsb · 12-02-2010, 10:40 PM

Hey, Just wondering what the part number is on the headers you used.
Thanks!

spudz · 01-03-2011, 11:29 PM
