still putting break in miles on her so no boost just yet, but she'll get one soon. It will be a low boost application also, 8 lbs max.

I appreciate it. I started from scratch with this car so I figured I'd upgrade the lights a little bit.

Well a little update on my disaster lol. I decided I'll take my car apart on saturday most likely. I plan on just pulling the oil pump and replacing it with a LS6 one. I'm almoast positive that the relief valve got stuck open again. It seems weird having the same problem twice though with 2 different pumps. Any ideas? The car ran fine for a year before the first oil pressure drop..it happened randomly and no...not under any large stress lol....no knocking...valvetrain is a little louder so it does confirm loss of oil. Think the pump will take car of it? Will it happen again? lol. Needless to say my forged motor is in the works and should be done within a month or so...high boost 347 is the object here. Any and all advice is welcome as well.

I haven't gotten it to the dyno yet. I've been doing my own tuning on the street. I installed my smallest pulley just recently. I can tell you this...while rolling into the throttle in 3rd it'll brake the mickey's loose @ over 80 mph. Kinda surprised me when the back end started to dance around, never did that before. I've been dealing with some bracket flex/belt slip/snapping belts issues. I "think" I finally have that figured out. It's getting to the point to where it's not very smart or safe to tune on the hwy so I'm gonna have to get it to a dyno. My work schedule hasn't been very foregiving as far getting stuff done to the car the last couple years. I'm doing something a little different this year so I think I'll have more time now. Once I get the D1 dialed in I may try an F1 out later. I made a little extra room when I installed my new radiator so I think I'm O.K. there.

Pictures are nice and all but the beauty of a procharged LSx is the sound. Do none of you procharger guys have videos or what is the deal.
