  1. I was down trying to help clear brush and debris in Trotwood on Wednesday. Its a mess. We were in Beavercreek on Friday and it was even worse.

     

    Insurance adjusters were out in force cutting checks and taking care of the policy holders. People were driving around offering cold water and donated food for volunteers to eat.

     

    The sense of community after something like this is amazing. Some people lost everything but they are balls deep with a chainsaw helping everyone else put their life back together.

  2. This isnt the case-At JEGS at least... We do not return core tax on cores no matter if bought online, over the phone or in the retail store.

     

    The only time you get FULL core credit back is when you return the product New and Unused.

  3. You need the balancer if you are going to swap whole kits. The truck, Corvette and Camaro/Firebird are all different belt offsets.

     

    I can help with the ICT Billet stuff as we sell their products if you have questions.

     

    The 551569-3 Alternator P/S bracket kit has the following stipulations. Plus, if you hate it, JEGS will take it back. :)

     

    Requires: **105 amp ONLY, alternator (19244779)

    Requires: Truck/SUV (or 2010-15 Camaro) crank pulley (12634105)

    Requires: 1998-02 LS1 Camaro power steering pump & pulley (63105 & 12559885)

    Requires: 1999-06 LS Gen 3 Truck Water Pump (252-845), or 2010-2015 Camaro Water Pump (19207665)

    Requires: LS Truck (3-bolt) Belt Tensioner

    Not compatible with Gen 4 "truck", LS2, or LS3 Corvette water pumps

    Includes: Alternator Bracket Kit

    Power Steering Pump Bracket Kit

    Belt Tensioner Relocation Kit & Pulley

    Uses 680K6 Belt (68.0")

    VVT equipped engines must use LS3 Camaro Water Pump

    If needing to extend your alternator harness connection, use ICT# WEALT30-36 (4-pin) or WEALT40-36 (2-pin)

  4. Frame Rot is a big deal. Square headlights are a bigger deal (yuck)

     

    4.0 with the AX-15 is the desirable combo. Personally I think the 3K budget will bring disappointing results but I dont really have a good feel for the market.

  5. I sell/field issues with these systems every day. Most of the issues I see are from people that aren't very mechanically inclined.

     

    The New Fuel Command Center II from Fitech is a great improvement over the original. Their lower cost EFI units dont seem to have many problems but when they do its not something We at JEGS or any retailer is able to handle. You have to talk directly to them and that is not easy. We regularly wait 3-5 days for return emails.

     

    We sell the fire out of the sniper kits with inline fuel systems. Not a lot of people are all about the in tank setups due to the level of modification involved with the tank.

     

    I am not saying either kit is BAD, what I am saying is for the extra money spent, I feel you get a better Style of EFI as well as better tech support, ALL USA Made product and (as well as with the Holley) All GM sensors so if one does die, you can easily pick it up at advance.

     

    In your case with needing one that sits on a stock spreadbore Manifold the Quadrajet Sniper or the GO EFI 400 with the MSD box and G Surge Tank is a better choice.

  6. Sniper kits are good. FiTech kits are cheaper but tend to have WAYYY longer lead times and sub par technical suppport.

     

    Personally, I dont think you get more bang for your buck than with an Edelbrock Pro Flo 4 EFI kit. 35970 is a 550HP max kit that includes the intake, fuel rails, fuel injectors, Throttle Body, Android based controller, wiring and a fully potted ECU
