Have you seen that yet Mike? It shows me making 490-500hp which would be about right for drivetrain loss and my rwhp dyno. It's pretty slick.

My condolences.  Very sad when someone goes before their time.

Looks like my windfall from Social Security hit my account this morning. So I can order some more parts as soon as the wife and I go thru the need/want list.


Viewing this afternoon and funeral tomorrow. I think the hardest thing will be seeing his son and daughter.

Jeremy, I went through the same thing you did with a close friend of mine that passed away a few years back. I held it together at the viewing and church in front his two teenage children...but broke down in my truck after it was over.

Debating if I'm going to buy a dual 450 setup or make my own. 99% it's going to get -8 ptfe feed and return. Maybe a -6 return but it'd only save a few dollars at this point. 


Still in the air about what I'm going to do with the pcm as well. I can go 2bar SD with flexfuel on the stock 411pcm, 3bar flex fuel with a p59 or  MS3pro/Efi source gold box. Holley is pretty much out due to cost, but is the only system that splits the engine/injectors/coils, so If I grab a gen IV 58x engine - you swap the engine harness rather than the whole harness. And their closed looping WOT fueling is bad ass. I like the idea of all the features I'd gain, and when you figure in the price of a good boost controller I'm over half way there.


Or I could say piss on it and put a razors kit on it, and hit it with windshield washer fluid until it pukes.

The previous paragraph may as well be in hieroglyphics for what I can understand of it. The last sentence about windshield washer fluid is right up my alley.

Sorry LSx talk and I was medicated.


I can
use the stock pcm with 3bar os - and flash it every fill up to adjust for alcohol content 30psi
use the stock pcm and load a flex fuel tune to it - but it'll be limited to 15 psi
upgrade to a newer pcm and load flex fuel tune and be limited to 30 psi
or go aftermarket and open options like, boost by speed/gear, traction control, boost control, anti-lag & rolling anti-lag.


I see little point of gasoline these days, flex fuel will save a lot of headaches and e85 will open up the tuning window a bit.

I'd go MegaSquirt - much more versatile than a stock PCM based option.
