How's that list coming?

I have 3 questions for you:

1. What fuel system upgrades are you doing other than injectors ?

2. Is there any issue using your stock power steering pump as I believe the ZL1 and V use an electric pump.

3. Who's doing your tuning?

The list is becoming long and expensive. Right now I just have a pile of receipts.

I'm working on a dual pump system that fits in our modules.

The pump is fine but the reservoir will need to be relocated to the unused post next to the cai.

I would like to employ the help of Rein Cunningham in Murrieta Ca. As I want to be able to use an ethanol mix. I'm an ok tuner but this guy come highly recommend by some of the best.

I have the crank pulley pinned and installed. Tensioner and idlers in. Took the week off so supercharger and fuelpump install this weekend. Adding a walbro 450lph on a 3psi relayed switch. Pump basket mods to be determined when I get it out.

First attempt at pinning the crank broke the bit. Start slow until you get past the balancer lip. An LS7 installer adapter is required with the ATI balancer. A blower pulley spacer works well as a bearing guide.

Pn list will get figured out when I'm done. The car should gain 2 tenths just from my wallet being so light.

On the truck scale yesterday 3/4 tank with camaro wheels was 4480# with me.

Im in to it about 2k plus the SC. I bought a blem balancer direct from ATI on ebay for $269 (normally 550). I got delayed doing the install because the trucks heatercore took a dump and the whole dash comes out to replace it.

Just lit her off. I've got quite a bit more tuning to do. Even after adjusting the IFR she is still pig rich. On the dyno tomorrow afternoon.
