LS1 Nova Just an update on my 66nova ls1 conversion. Car is up and running. Still trying to get full throttle, without it the rev limiter comes on. My mechanic thinks he knows what the problem is. We are going to add another isolator on the motor mount because there was some vibration. We just put a power booster on which really helps the braking effort. Next will be the transgo shift kit. The major hurdle is trying to figure out how to do the induction, right now we elbowed a pipe off the TB and stuck a K&N cone filter after the maf. This also needs to work in conjunction with a new raditor. I'm running the stock one now. Also headers is the next major obsticle, trying to find some off the shelf that will work instead of custom. The car runs strongm probably will take it to MMS and have it dynoed along with heads cam and tuning later.
Re: LS1 Nova Congratulations! I'm not sure I understand your statement:

This doesn't make sense to me.

Re: LS1 Nova I wasn't getting full throttle. So under full acceleration the trans wasn't shifting because the computer wasn't letting it. Just got it back today seems to be working fine now. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">
