Ps Brian I'll call you tomorrow like planed but wanted to know if you had any willwood's in stock.

Wheatley is gonna send me a stock 6L - 80E for a base tune that I will just drop in and work from there. According to him it will be a lot easier to do that then to recalibrate everything else to match. Brian is gonna help me drop the tune in and then I'll find a good tuner in the area. I had someone lined up but he's now out of the picture. Just waiting on DrX's harness and that should be here on monday.
I was pretty excited to hear it run on friday, I think richard thought I was going a little nuts I'm sure.
Unfortunetly the battery was dead and it didn't have enough juice to turn it over, gonna have to wait till monday I guess.

Thats exactly what I did...mine is a 2 bar and running quite well now. Note that the 80E shift points are something I'm still playing around with. R/

Good to know. I was wondering exactly how you did yours too! Wheatly never did send me a tune but I was able to find one off HPtuners and just used that one. I took off to go to a wedding in maine this weekend but richard@WCCH came in on Saturday and spent all day getting my tune to work right and fixing any problems that needed some attention. (Left bank wasn't firing 
). Can't really say enough about his commitment to his customers! He solved all the problems and now it's running with a base tune in it. Good enough until I can get it tuned professionally.

I'm picking it up tomorrow morning. It needed a new front pulley (other one wobbly and bent) and a couple tranny wires plugged into the computer and a O2 sensor + misc stuff.
I take a few vids and post them up manana. I can't believe how loud it is
. Even with the cut-out closed holy **** it's loud.

I bot HP Tuners and plan to teach myself, that way I can do my thing whenever I have time. I still have P0315 Crank relearn...left it at Chev dealer last week for the day and they did nothing claiming that I had too many codes and they cudn't read the MAP sensor...****** zeros 
...anyways I'll eventually get it dealt with...IAT's are way high at 190*, so need to flush the rad juice as its starting to gum a bit and get the meth tuned. Belt chirps just before shifts, and I think its slippin a bit, so need to get a progressive rate tensioner I suspect. Also putting race type fuel return in and that shud clean up my AFR and smooth the flow...beat goes on...at least its driving well, but down on power on hot days. R/
