    Well. Tank is awesome. Still have not plumbed the fuel filler neck to the side marker. But, looking for ideas for throttle cable for the tbi to the clifford ram flow intake. Pics or links would be great or pm me for a number. Thanks!

    You can find a stock cable like off a Camaro or something. The tubular housing can be pulled out of the end piece on either end. The little end on the throttle end can be clipped off and the cable and housing trimmed to whatever you need.

    I'm impressed by your progress. using the stock ECM is a hard way to go. keep hacking, you'll get it straightened out. It should have good torque right off idle. Why do you have the timing so retarded? try moving it up to 10-12 initial without ECM connection.

    Well i was sticking to the stock tbi setup till i got close to what i want. So i just put it at 10 much better. I think maybe 11 or 12 could be better but i want to see hpw it does on hwy. I still need to move the fuel line as its now way to close to the exhaust. And still need to install the coolant to the intake manifold. Getting much happier with it though. Just wish i could get the ecm tuned for the l6. But to buy the hardware and then data log it and then burnin chips.. Being that i dont know if ill get a check any time soon.... Kinda heartache. Lol
