    Jack that compression up baby!
    my long term plans are to do simple heads, cam, intake and bolt ons then in 2 years when I do my high performance schooling I want to build my own motor, just a 355 with forged internals and shave the deck just a hair to bump it a little, and at the same time do a sweet fogger nitrous system

    Just put in my 2 weeks at Domino's. Can't wait to finally go back to resting on the weekends and not working about income flow. Monika's going to making about as much as I do :thumbup: The Trans Am just might be paid off at the end of this month

    ok I have a question for all you guys, what thermostats and what degrees are yall running? I have a hypertech 160* and today I drove to Stillwater witch is 60 miles or so and it did fine but on the way back home the 160* thermo wasn't operating properly bc my temp gauge was reading 210 so I turned the heater on and the temp dropped to 180* and wouldn't go any lower could my thermo be messed up?

    I've heard injuneer say that the "160°" is the opening temp and is not fully open until 20° hotter. So I would suspect that in order to take advantage of the lower temp, the first fan needs reprogrammed to come on at say 190, off at 180. Second fan on at 200 off at 190. Any lower than 180 and you will be working against the engine.

    is it something I can do through dyno tune or what bc I just spent 500 on a tune and he didn't mess with the fan settings it had a pcm for less mail order tune on it before I dyno tuned it, I haven't had any problems with it jumping temp like this until today idk if it matters but I don't have the splash guard on it "the black piece that runs along the bottom" and everytime you hit a bump u hit that
