Anyone know info source for E-Rod installations Qs? Howdy all, I am making decent progress putting my new E-Rod LS3 in my Stude Avanti, but the GM installation manual leaves something to be desired and someone who could/would field install questions would be a gawd-send--at least for me. For example, my T-5 I'm hooked up to between my engine and Jag rearend doesn't have an electronic speed-sensor that the manual says is "necessary" (for something) and I cannot quite put my cats exactly where it says they "must" go.
Now, I know what the highlighted words mean, of course, but I've found that "necessary" and "must" can be for different reasons, e.g. emission control, drivability, etc. Though I'm using the E-Rod with cats, I do not live where emission testing is necessary, but drivability is, of course.
Anyway, possible leads on info sources would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks for the replies; I've been away awhile. Too busy working on the car, granddaughter over the summer, etc., etc.
As for the T-5, it will do fine with the "ninny" (according to my Salt Flats buddy) way I drive on the street. It's survived 15 years behind 494 dynoed-hp. I'm not a drag or street racer, limiting my "craziness" to the Salt.
I appreciate the input!
