    Alright, so its been a while. I replaced the piston rings. ( long story but fixed oil leaks caused by Blow-By) I currently have everything installed minus the VSS. and as long as I keep it in "Park/neutral" no check engine light. but here is my issues.

    1. at startup its perfect. even idles down very nicely.
    2. if I quickly actuate the throttle it fires out the throttle body.
    3. Driving when I try to give it a little gas I can feel it fall off then back on again
    4. it ran good on my way to and from the muff shop. and good on the way to work. then on the way home it went blah. ( makes me think about the fuel tank and aeration) I am going to check fuel pressure but don't know exactly what it should be.
    5. Is the Original 1bbl intake mani too restrictive for the gm 2 bbl TBI?????

    and my vac is pulling right at the base of good. 18 inch lbs and I think I may need to replace the hydraulic lifters as well since after adjusting the lash I found that a couple got loose after 1 turn... but its quiet at the moment.

    Ohh and side note... that vss from summit racing is a 8k pulse. that was not on the main page so I returned it. but I did finally get the one from the JTR guy. VERY nice construction.....
