• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Cutting fuel lines

    For those who have done it, will this pipe cutter work? Summit SUM-900500 - Summit® Mini Tubing Cutters If not, any links to one that will? While on my deployment I'm planning out my IC install with braided SS fuel lines. :cool:

    WOT fuel pressure

    Anyone else have a fuel pressure gauge installed? Before I top swapped, at WOT I saw about 60PSI. Now, I see 70PSI at WOT. Just wondering if that's normal because idle is like 50PSI and if I gun it from right there it's shocking to see the pressure go up 20PSI that quickly.

    Rockers break in

    I changed my oil for the first time since the swap. I had been running dino oil for the first 500 miles and wanted to get back to Royal Purple. Anyway, on my magnetic drain plug there was a little material. I would think some material is expected as the pushrods break in their new seats on...

    O2s for SC cars

    Now that I've got the M90, I know my O2s should be higher than they were N/A. They're currently in the 920 range. Anyone think I should move them or just spark tune with it right there?

    FPR vac fitting

    How snugly is that fitting supposed to be? Right now it doesn't take much to move it up and down on the nipple on the FPR. I'm wondering if because it's so loose I have a slight vac leak there. It's loose enough that I'm not sure it wouldn't blow off under boost. It's not as secure as the...

    Gear ratio adjustments

    So I'm using a stock L67 file as the basis for my top swap. I thought I did a mass copy of all tranny tables (to include the gear ratio tables) from one of my L36 files to make sure I didn't have any tranny problems. After a couple drives the tranny started banging in to gear and I got a code...

    Vac leak LTFT?

    When I first started my top swapped L36, I was running a stock L67 file with adjustments for my different gear ratio and the 42.5# injectors. My idle LTFT is +7, which I don't feel is all that bad since I have a ported TB, blower, LIM, and 1.9 rockers. My question is would I see a much higher...

    1.9 rockers help quick!!

    I'm putting my top swap together. With the 1.9 rockers it sometimes doesn't seem to want to do the compression check. I can see some air bubbling up around the intake valve. Here's what's weird. I put a stock rocker on the #1 intake valve. Turned the crank into it and let it sit. Held...
