I've been having same problem with seeing my pics and most everyone elses pics . Now on LS1tech side my pics come up fine . I've resized , with no luck. So I figured it was PT's problem. If some of us need to download some pic program, then I wish I could fine out. Any suggestions ?

Wow.....Awesome build! I would want the 802ci in a larger truck to tame it down some, I think if it was in a RC it would be way too much tq.

Do you guys think it will get 5mpg?

Hell, Id be so happy if I cold get 5 mpg. My 04 Silverado with 572-F3 Blowthrough Carb Steve Morris 1531 hp on 93 - filled it at gas station near home, drove it really steady out to the track. Filled up at about 2 kms from track, 34 km and used 33 litres. Thats app 7.5 gals for app 21 miles, about 3 to the gal. Maybe the Bigstuff 3 will help a little but end of the day its not about the economy as we all know

Well talk about pissed! This (Wiring Guru) that was to wire my truck. Story goes like this

He comes to my home to check truck out late November says will be ready to start after new year. TElls me rip, cut, chop all the wiring out of the truck from the headlights to the tail lights and everything inbetween as he will put in aftermarket body controller unit etc etc. Which I do, I cut all wiring out of truck and unplug main harness under dash where it goes through firewall

After new year I call and he says cant start now till Feb

February I call and he says send the truck down on the 16th

I send truck down to his workshop on 16th Feb about 30 miles south of home. He says shouldn't be more than 2 weeks

After 2 weeks I call he says another week, goes on and on, then wont answer phone, then wife messages, hes sick, their daughters sick, there dogs sick...

Go down 3 times to his shop, no one there

I finally get hold of him on phone, say will be finished in 1 week or 2 at most. I call after 2 weeks, says need another 2 weeks nearly done

2 weeks later it is 28th of April I had enough. I get hold of him and say make up bill you think I owe you and I will get a truck down there and pick it up. He says he cant do anything with it because of all the computers, says there is like 26 small computers in all the doors for windows, electrics etc etc

I don't even want to see this pr anymore. I give the towy 1200 and get him to pick up my truck and just get it home safe, that's all I want, my baby back home -safe

So truck gets back home safe - that was more important to me than the money

I check it out and all he has done except for his (research into the project) was to put some plugs and wires on the headlights and taillights

So here we are app 4 months behind on this project because of one of the so called best wiring gurus around

So present situation is, I have got onto another GURU who seems to make more sense

He says I should have left all the standard harnesses in there and run power through that system to operate all the general operations, windows, seats, dash, a/c etc and then run the engine electrics stand alone

He seems to make more sense than GURU NO 1

Anyway, GURU NO 2 is coming down on Saturday am to do an appraisal on the situation and hopefully we will be able to try and move ahead again, app 3months later than it should have been

Meanwhile I am trying to track down new or good secondhand wiring harness in US. Currently talking to Hicksvile Auto Recyclers in Ohio who deal in all Chev and GM Diesels only

Will update as it occurs. Thanks for listening

Good Lord! This is insane (in a VERY good way). I'm sorry to hear about the wiring "guru" that ripped you off. Hopefully the next guy can get you up and running again. I can't wait to see it done! You have great taste!
