Darren, you are right about the drop; it cools better at about 1K, but it sitll gets hot just sitting still. There are some back to back lights with big waits around here. My fans can't be heard inside the car with it running and the windows down. If I'm rolling much at all it's fine. The SPAL fans work really well on RICE ETR's car, so I figure I will set them up one one fan output and work their range to be the first fans to run. I'll leave the PTS puller on the inside and set them up as the second fan to run higher up. If it ends up not running much I'll pull it out. Summer is coming, we'll see how they do.

Damn, that is pretty quiet. Have you gotten the new SPALs on there, and if so, did they take care of the overheating issue?

They are on, but the car isn't back up from the oil pump problem yet. I have to go out of town this weekend for a week too... after that I'll be back for about 5-7 days, but will be leaving for 2-4 more weeks... Real life's intrusions suck.

I can't even... I still haven't bought another house; I'm in an apt. for a lil while longer... I trailored it back to CAM; hoping everything will be A-OK on the fuel and oil front when I get back. Ordered a new GM LS6 pump; it's just gonna get cleaned up, no porting.

Well I hope it all works out for you. It's times like these (read: shitty) when I start believing in karma, but only the good kind where when bad **** happens it means the good is just around the corner. I choose to ignore the aspect that says it's my prior misdeeds that have brought the negative upon me, b/c if that's the case, I'm going to be fucked for a looooong time

This isn't mine, and I would've asked permission from whose it is. However, I can't remember...

It's a nice pic of most pipes:

Here's his profile, there are some links in his signature: https://ls1tech.com/forums/member.ph...oster&t=495537
He built the kit himself. I have ridden in the car; it's nasty.
