Nope.

He died about 20,000 posts ago, primarily from (Delete) ...

Try him at the shop number and ask Jonathan to give you extra consideration. He's usually good for helping the truly desperate. Tell Jonathan that "Detroit Steve" said to call, and you'll only be ignored half as long...

EDIT: To Michael -> Sorry, man. Couldn't resist. Won't happen again. Promise.

can you maybe answer a few now so i can get going on this thing i have it half way done now but am bewaffled on some stuff such as the oil feed do i just drill and tap the piece that comes of with the 2, 10 mm bolts, and also the hose that went to the emmissions tube off the drivers manifold do i just plug that, and im also having trouble trying to locate a vac. source on this toilet,and maybe any other faq that arise that maybe i will ask later,no offense but the instructions are kind of shotty,ill do a full write up on all of it when i get it going and tune it

Yes, the piece above the oil filter comes off with (2) 10mm bolts. It is already the proper size to be tapped to a 1/8NPT thread. Then drill a 1/4" hole through it to provide oil to the -4 feed line. We supplied the 1/8NPT fitting that screws into it. Just be sure to use teflon tape on it.
The emissions tubes and hoses get completely removed.
The vacuum souce from the engine comes from the vacuum port on the rear of the intake. Just left of center as you face the engine. You simply "T" into it.

I agree about the instructions (or lack of). Most of the pics were lost when the website was crashed earlier this year. We never really looked at updating them again, since we no longer planned to sell the turbo kits unless we install them.

We have been closed since Wednesday, as posted on the website. I'll try to check back here over the weekend, but I will be gone tomorrow evening and most of Sunday. (Did the downpipe extension show up today?)

Still better than Tony DeQuick, but losing ground.
And that REALLY hurts! A low blow by anyone's standards....

Hey Rob, how much would you charge for the LS1Edit file on your Formula?

Think I'm just going to install your turbo kit on my stock LS1 since the current 6.0 engine build is taking longer than thought plus I'm low on funds at this point. I'm also running a T76 and similar sized injectors so it should work. It would really help as a baseline to start with before the actual dyno tuning takes place.

I think you're doing a good job getting back with people in a timely fashon plus I like the fact you participate on the board.

So no more selling the LS1 turbo kits unless you install them? Can't say I blame you.
