Sorry that I have not updated my build in a year!, but I had been switching jobs and had no funds for the project.

I am going to start back up on it this week, and finally get this car done!

Ok, I had some time to work on the motor this week, I am firing it up on the engine stand before I put it in, to make sure everything works good.

I could not get it to fire!
I checked all power and grounds, all good.
I tested spark, and it was good.

So I shot some starter fluid in it, and it fired right up for a few seconds!

i had injector pulse but no spray, so i pulled off the injectors and tested them, 7 out of 8 where stuck. I manged to get 3 of them freed up, so I have to go get 4 new injectors.

I will post a video when i get new injectors & it up and running!

Would have been cheaper to send them to Mr Injector for cleaning/rebuild than buying replacement ones. ;-)

Thanks, I will check into that, but I might upgrade all injectors to bigger ones while I'm at it.

Does anyone know a bigger injector that will fit both ly6 & ls3 intakes? I don't mind having to use spacers, if needed for ly6 intake.

Thanks, I'm still learning HP Tuners my self, but I could help you get it running and driveable. What engine mods do you have?
