A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Looking good. I guess you got the converter ironed out. Did he tell you to run it a quart over full, or does that deep pan make up for that? Are you planning for a dual nozzle alky setup? What about the maf? 4.5" z06?

Keep up the good work. I bet you have some mowing to do.


Yes the converter is ironed out, at least I hope it is.


With the deep pans, I've been told to run them a quart low. If not, it will spit out the vent.


I'm going to see how far this single nozzle will go before throwing another nozzle on there.


I still have the 3.5 inch MAF on there.

Alright fellas.... About to fire this thing off. I've double and triple checked my work. Going to hook up the PL and see what happens. If all is well I'll try to get a video. It will be loud though. Only the down pipe and test pipe on the exhaust.

Well had a little hiccup and now I know why that fella sold me the mini starter.  After taking it back out and putting in the old stocker.... We got ignition!  It surprised me how quick the thing fired up! Just like normal...then pow!  Sounds like a sewing machine even over open exhaust. I forgot to hook up the MAP sensor vacuum line but other than that all is well. Let her run about ten minutes till the fans kicked on and now I'm writing it up for you guys.

I have 2.5" in total
There are operations that can help with that Steve. :rofl: TB3 told me about them. :O

Let me know how it works out for you!  :D
They don't have an operation to shorten things Steve, unless you've created one. :rofl:

Congrats Jason. :cheers:

Way to go Jason. I always stress over cam break-in and the old girl retaining her fluids! I spend more time looking under the car than under the hood.
