Grayeagle Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 nice Z28 .. wasn't that cross ram motor rated at 425hp or some such? Knew a guy long ago with his special order '67 Chevelle that had a cross ram 302 in it and decent gears in back.. ..was damn fast for a big car with a small motor..he useda yank the front wheels right off the ground on launch. Good weight txfer, traction, and launch rpm -Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Fangs Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 After a lot of testing and tuning yesterday and today, the TPiS has finally learned some street manners. I need to do a little more tweaking before I am completely satisfied, but being able to drive it for several miles without a single hiccup or unexpected issue, I must say I am happy with the way it is shaping up. I also had to replace my brass-bodied fuel pressure sensor with a stainless steel model, since the E85 was beginning to make the brass one read erratically.

Two Fangs Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 This thing has taken a flow bench to figure out, LOL (serious, though). But I got it. My advice? Don't be the first in line for something unless you are prepared to do some time as a guinea pig... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Fangs Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 Sunday morning, while the sky transfers from a black to a deep indigo, before the stars are consumed by the light of day, this thing is going to be boosting its ass off.
