Incon TTi and 5.3 build

![Default](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
My first attempt at an all out engine build. I got this unknown mileage/year 5.3 shortblock for $100 on craigslist. Cleaned it up, put in King bearings, newer LS6 rod bolts and some 317 heads with Patriot Dual extreme valve springs. Found a steal on this Incon stage III kit. It only came 80% complete, missing only the bits and pieces. Let me know what you guys think!

Alright guys after 3 deployments and numerous TDY's i've finally got this thing installed. People weren't kidding about how the nickel and dime stuff adds up! So my question is i'm down to just needing a 2 bar map sensor and i'm set and ready to go to the tuners. I picked up a GM part # 12615136. Just wanted to make sure this is a plug and play sensor. Will this work?

I got the base tune but i'm pretty sure I have a bad map sensor plus its so pig rich it burns my eyes!. It's reading 88 Kpa when it should be in the 101 range. I got it off flea bay so i'm going down tomorrow and getting an AC delco unit. Hopefully tuned this week.

Well I got to spend some time at the tuner today. Not too shabby, still working on the street tune. Apparently I have more injector than i need. So on to the pics!
This is how she started!
