Car bogs down below 2k If I put my foot down below (roughly) 2000RPM, the car will bog until it hits 2k and then power will pick up again (this is in 1st and 2nd gear - that's all ive tried.)
any ideas? o2 sensors maybe? i dont want to blow money on parts that dont need replacing... so i'd like to narrow it down as much as possible...
thanks guys!

Also clean your MAF, that never hurts.
You might try to get a scanner to read real time data as your symptoms occur.

i am super new with LT1's... how many o2 sensors are there and where are they? also where is the MAF? (ive got an aftermarket ramair intake)
You have two oxygen sensors, they are located by the headers before the cat. You should have a big flat four-prong connect on each side of the block. Just follow the sensors back until you find the plug. You'll probably have to do it with the car cold.

Sorry, my bad, you have a '93, you don't have a MAF.

Check the Fuel pressure mine bogged down till 2k rpms when the fuel pump was going out. Was like 90 outside i had the A/C going from stop light and it would bog down till 2k rpms then would go i got it home and later tryed to leave made it to end of the driveway and it died. 30mins later started up like nothing happened.
i dont have a starting/dying problem and it is barely bogging down.. just for a second or two... but how do i check fuel pressure?
