Question for yeah I watched the video and didnt hear a 2step, are you brake boosting or how are you going about getting the turbo spooled up off the line? Cause coming off a trans brake is like being in nuetrul and there is no load to help spool the turbo?

You might have touched on this but what ecu are you running a Factory gm computer or BS3 Holley?

running a dfi gen 7 and msd for the ignition,the msd 2 step is pretty soft imo and i have it wired with my trans brake. the trans brake locks first and reverse together and loads the engine

Here's the official "first start":


Then a little idle video of it once the cooling system was bled:

I see, very bad *** ride! how are you overall liking it so far? How many degrees of timing are you running on E85 and what kind of #'s did you pick up on the switch if you have a before and after?

If I lived by you, I would say lets throw the head bolts in tonight! I already did a set on a common rail Cummins today

I want to say my buddy was putting down 641hp on stock tty and gaskets for over 1 year before the piston rings went...
