Signs that you have a good shop, BIG PROPS TO SQR I made a post about 2 weeks ago thinking I blew the short block on my Formula. Well I took my car to the place that built the car to have it looked over & see how bad the carnage was.
Dropped the car off this weekend & called Monday & left message on Monday. Well today I get the News
Was not a BLOWN SHORTBLOCK. But a BLOWN FUSE
Now I know of some shops that would have took advantage of this & took me to the bank & me being dumb when it comes to LS1's would have bought it hook line sinker.
I just want to sing my praise's about SIMPLE QUICK RACING & let everyone know that these guys are out to build you a FAST CAR, Not make money....
Thanks to Billy, Daniel, Scott, & Daniels Wife for putting up with all my phone calls.

The fuse blew out the right bank of injectors & was running on 4cyc

Ditto here. The car would idle great. But when you reved it. It sounded like something major was wrong. Never would have guessed a fuse could cause that & the result of a blown fuse would make my car run on 4 cyc
