No problem man. It seems like it but it'll be so worth it in the end. Once it's together and you get all the shakedown bugs out, it's gonna be one hell of a trans am. Look forward to seeing/hearing it when it's done

Looks good, but you DEFINITELY need to get the tips tucking up more. And I know, those are very expensive, and nice looking tips, but on a T/A, I think some huge *** Corsa clones look 10x better. Or Mecham ovals perhaps if your not a Corsa clone fan...

I forgot a 10AWG ground, to the BCM i guess, and a connector from the collumn to VATS...

hooked those up and had cranking... no start

fuel pump wouldnt run

hot wired my hot wire kit... :/ so pump pump had power... ran, but still no fuel pressure

apparently the pump was wired backwards, so i re-pinned the connector and we were good to go.

62psi at the rail? No sure if that is accurate...

started it up, sounds mean. i love it.

60-70psi oil pressure at idle. started it up a couple times, started to play with the IAC, Throttle cracker, but bedtime.
