Hes just saying hes working on it because i said im getting an lt1 again. Its all a ruse

You know it...

Took the car out for a drive last night and still having a off throttle stumble like it wants to die when i push in the clutch(and did once at a light). I did a IAC reset and still the same issue. I pulled the PP 52mm off and am putting on a stocker from the shelf just to cure my curiosity. Anyone know of a LTXtech throttle body plate laying around; i'm losing the one i had made for the PP and they are different bolt patterns. Also, I noticed a fairly large oil spot under the rear after last night too...I think the 10 bolt knows its days are running short.

It's getting there. Just got my backing plates cleaned up and painted. Just need to get to the machine shop to have everything pressed on. Did find it had a fuel pressure issue today which might and most likely the cause of my lean issue. I have a racetronix pump on the way as well as a new fuel filter and fpr.

Took the axles in last Tuesday to have the bearings pressed on. The 255 is in the tank and new FPR is on the rail then ran out of motivation for the day. Still have to do the under car stuff and put the rail back in but shouldn't take very long at all.
Also I'm looking at ways to make the engine bay nice again. I picked up a set of Cantons and working on a deal for the Alt relocation set up. Been looking into a battery relocation and do a nice aluminum coolant recovery tank but kinda don't know which way to go and I might polish the rails while I have them out.

The amount of zip ties in my car would make roadkill proud...I just hide them well.

Nothin wrong with zip ties to keep atuff neat. Its when people use them instead of hardware thats the problem.

My battery relocation setup was purchased second hand, but most of it was replaced or not used anyway. I think all I used was the Summit push off bar and wiring. Ended up getting a Taylor batter box and stuffed it in the cubby on the driver side (original intentions were to have a bottle in the passenger side where the spare was). Went with a fairly small Odyssey battery and added a fuse so the car likely won't burn down if something were to happen to the thick gauge wire that runs through the car.

Let me know if you're interested in some part numbers. I may have a couple pics in my build thread as well.

As for zip ties...best invention ever.

I just checked them out. Which catch cans did you go with? and I'll take what ever part numbers you have as well.
