I dont have any pics either, just an excel file that says what wires need to move where. It was super easy, although it was a little more challenging making it look good, but it was worth saving the 500 for me. Me=Poor, lol

One more thing, i totally ditched my ABS also, i just did all the fittings myself, it does not look like i want, so it will be redone this summer.
I have only had the brakes lock up ONE time in the rain under some serious panic braking(lady coming into my lane fast)

I just finished reading the shbox site along with some ls1 wiring info. I think i understand it for the most part.
If i am correct the Lt1 car will not have a harness C101 ?
The Coils get powered from Fuse #11 on the Lt1 box ? I assume both the even and odd

3800RS-
I would assume your car has 2 fuel lines going to the motor like the lt1s of that year?
I know this was talked about at the very start of this thread, but if yours is setup that way, you have a few options for fueling.
I bought the fuel filter from a 00+corvette for 50 bucks from the local parts store, and simply plugged it in right by the rail. It does not look the best, but it is a temp solution till i feel like going underneat the car and making it leak neat and such.
Ebay also has a fuel rail setup that gives you the feed and return for 175 i think, it does not show it in the picture, but if you read the description, (i have also talked to them) it will indeed do what you need.
Here is the ad

I know it does not show the return quick disconnect, but it is the one that you would need. I was going to go that route but funds ran low and the 50 filter did the exact same thing.
You could also try and find the fuel rails from a 97 corvette, they have feed and return hook ups also, but they are $$$$$
