  1. +90000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000, that, and she's a red head . An extremely attractive one.
  2. Jack, If the truck uses a GM DIS ignition (usually 96+), the ignition upgrade isn't worth it as factory GM coils can get the job done. If it's a distributer based ignition system, just a coil with a good cap and rotor should suffice. 1985+ 300ZX Turbo, 85+ Thunderbird,Mustang SVO+, DSM cars would all be good sources. If you are looking aftermarket, Super 60 T3 would fit you fine. I wouldn't go the route of FMU, but look at things like Megasquirt. Adding fuel by raising pressure works, but to make it worth your while you'll want something for engine management. The enemy you face is charge temperature. The air that will be going into the truck gets incredibly hot after being compressed, send that into an already hot combustion chamber designed for only normal atmosphereic pressures...engine go boom. So to expand on invaders statement, the intercooler will make the engine last longer. The lof law of power with forced induction is colder, denser air makes more of it - safely. Don't forget you'll need to use atleast 93 octane to keep the truck running without knock or detonation. You may also want to go down a heat range and tuck in the gap a bit on your spark plugs. Copper plugs should be used and depending on your situation, .005-.010 of gap reduction is normal. What is your budget looking like?
  3. The frame is solid. The only major work done is shaving the exhaust manifolds, making engine mounts, fabbing all of the lines, and interfacing the VCM to the gauge cluster/engine. They work closey with the fellows from LS*Edit, so the latter is not much of a problem. Phil - is that the transmissions you needed support for?
  4. Here is an answer, I'm currently an E5 (SSG) in the USAF and will soon be a 2nd Lt. after completeing the TDSP program. Appearently you guys don't get satire?
  5. :thumbup: Mallett is a good (pricey) guy. I've ridden around in a LS6 Procharged variant....it's pretty impressive.
  6. I don't think people travel to large cities to see shit holes. Compared to Metro Columbus, I still feel Metro Cleveland is a shithole.
  7. I don't want to know how you found that....
  8. Japan and China canild more nukes faster than any country on this planet. Playing with North Korea, China, and Japan gets a bit more spookey...
  9. I'll have to bust out a map for this one.
  10. You might of had a glimpse of University Circle, possibly Tower City. I'll admit the city has become better, but the neighborhoods have just gone down the shit hole. I remember walking around University Circle scared shitless with my brother trying to kill time while my mom visited my dad in the hospital. Out of morbid curiosity, I looked up the poverty rates and called my Mom to see if she had any updated stuff. Anything around Cleveland has a poverty rate of 20%+, 25-30% being the norm. Even some of the outer laying suburbs have crazy high crime rates (Shaker Heights South). The worst my mom found was that St. Clair has a poverty rate of 57%!. East Cleveland FTW. It's a city to drive through, but sure as hell wouldn't want to live there again.
  11. More like we're not afraid to open their cargo doors. Review the US's net exports. Alternitive energy components will not be made in the US. It is far cheaper to import them from Japan and China, as pretty much everything else is, also. Jobs are being outsourced, profits are getting higher, but the % of profits from labor is shrinking. Everyone wonders why the gap between rich and poor is widening, yet it's simply a result of emphasis on investment. Let's hope we dont piss off Japan or China.
  12. I've lived there 18 some odd years, I don't know what you consider Cleveland, but most of it is as said.
  13. People in the left lane are usually going fast because they are in a high speed chase.... Cleveland is like Afgahnistan, bombed out and depleted. Some of the suburbs aren't to bad, but the only thing keeping the town alive is Sherwin Williams and the Hospitals. Ironically, I've heard stories from elders about being held at gun point or followed at each....
  14. Looking for an entry level tech: A+ and/or other certifications would be nice. Proficient knowledge of PCs and MACs, basic networking, ability to look things up on google that you don't know, etc. Nate
  15. I have no such things, only flying carpet.
  16. I would hate to see what country the US invades to find the source of this "alternative" /Ahmeed
  17. Your Youtube is meaningless against my Aljazeerafu. Have fun with getting NATO to agree yet alone enforce sanctions against North Korea.....we'll be watching.... /Iran
  18. Please do not speak of my people as you americans pillage our oil to feed your H3s.... Or is this what you westerners term, Imperialism?
  19. Informaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
  20. Is that type of hose usually clear and sorta like a flexable straw? Is that something you can get from a parts store? Thanks for sharing
  21. I've had issues, and I'll take DK's word for it. I've pumped the tank completely dry to add race fuel, and tried running it dry on a dyno. I lost two walbro intakes (the 340s that ZZP sells) along with a single intank (letting the car chime empty). Don't forget, fuel is lubrication for the pump. You need to "prime" the car because the T adapter ZZP sells does not have a check valve. On IGN the pcm runs the fuel pump for N seconds, on a normal car pressure is built in the lines. With the 3800 Specific kit, it bleeds off through the venturi line. EFI hose will not last when it's submerged in gasoline. There is a reason why GM uses a special hose.
  22. A word of caution on the GTP fuel pump: The car uses a venturi scavenging system. Racetronix has custom pumps that retain this, as the regualr Walbro's don't. You'll have to keep 1/4 tank at minimum in the car without the venturi system.
  23. I'm suprised the car can hook that well with 3.29s. :burn: Good luck with the car.
