Holy lope Ben! I was just going to send you a pm to see if you were going to have it done by the end of the month.

Is that untuned? I didn't see a MAF, are you going speed density, or was it just lying off to the side?
Good work now get it buttoned up and out on the road.

Yep I started it today! It is still on the 5.3L tune anf the maf is just sitting on the side.

I have an oil pan leak and coolant coming from some where. I think it is from the coolant drain plugs on the block. If I remeber right I forgot to use any kind of sealant.

Yep. I put all the pink wires on the same side, left side, and it worked.

Still not tuned. MAF is hooked up right now, but still not sure if it is going to stay. Just got word for my b-day (Dec 5th) I am getting the funds for the tune! I need to schedule an appointment!
