Brian(Bshell) did warn me that the service light might come on though after so many miles after the header install so im less worried about that and more worried about the burning smell! input would be welcome.

well, i looked under the car and it doesent look like they are damaged, but i cant get it high enough to really check. Also, after i posted this i went to advanced and scanned for codes, and here they are P1133,manufacturer control,fuel/air metering and P1153,manufacturer control, fuel/air metering. Sounds like a Maf issue to me?
Also, Brian, do u think we would have time to do the hose mod? I got those wheels from Tony yesterday and put them on and while they look sweet, they look small, cause the perrelii p-zero tires have like no sidewall. I was just wondering, can i fit a 285 35 18 on these 8.5 wheels.

Those codes mean your O2 sensors aren't switching fast enough. They are common codes after installing headers. Alot of people disable those codes, but I didn't with yours. Are you coming out this Saturday? I'll check it out if you'll be there.

thanx man, i know ive asked u before, im just paranoid, but u will see what im talking about this weekend. also, i saw some 285 summitomos that werent too damn expensive, is that what u said u had on the back?
I had Kumho Ecsta Mx's on the back before and now (as of a week ago) have Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3s. Both were/are 285/40/17, but the GSD3s are a little bit wider. I have the 275/40/17 Sumitomo HTRZ II's on the front and they run a little narrow for there size.
I ended up piecing my brakes together from the corvette forum, ebay, and sponsors on this site. You can also get the entire setup from a sponsor if you want all brand new. I can give you more info on Saturday.

The flickering of the lights?? Big stereo?? Subs and amps???
If so u might have a bad alternator going out..... bad battery???
Are you running s capacitor in the car if you are running a big stereo??
if so your pulling alot of voltage and the PCM needs a certain amount to do its job.
thats my .02
