Default The Third Gen LS1 is Alive!!

Yep, after months of trying to figure out whats wrong with my wiring (im in college so i only have weekends to work on it) i finially got the thing to fire up. Turned out that the only thing in my way was a blown fuse and a poorly connected ground wire. Now I just have to clean all of the wiring up, finish getting my power rack and pinon attached, hook up the radiator, ac and trans cooler, wait for my a-arms to arive so I can put on my front suspension and brakes and order and install my inline pump and...yea i have a ways to go, buts still it was nice to hear the thing run for once...

Congrats! I know that's been a long struggle. It's almost always something like a bad ground that causes so much pain. Now you can move on.
