Congrats either way but im definetly looking forward to some video! Glad you didnt have to track down any issues with the wiring! We all kind of got the same pinouts so this makes me worry less being this is the first diy harness thread and video to come shortly! Spring is basicly here its suppost to go up to 18*C tomorrow! Global warming sure has its bonus's for making winter shorter. It usually doesnt get like this untill mid april. Just have to order up a knock sensor and im set to get to work and fire it up. Tune is being worked on slowly by my tuner when he has some free time.

And everyone Ion at madtuner did an awesome job on my mail order tune.

Well found quite a nasty oil leak on the oil pan gasket on the front cover but that's no big deal nothing Some black rtv won't fix.

Also I forgot to put this in there. I think it's the tune but I'm not sure. It will idle at like 5-600 when I first start it then I'll turn it off then crank it again and it will idle normal at 900ish. This has happened twice now.

Just wanted to give an update we got the ac issue fixed it was just unplugged vacuum line. Got the oil leak settled out. Been driving the car everyday for the past week and enjoyed every bit of it. The car just all around drives better. Huge thanks to mike at efi connections for all of his help. Huge thanks to ion and getting my PCM tuned and a gigantic thanks to the guys on ls1tech that have helped me with my harness.

Will do guys I haven't had time to get any videos yet I've been working non stop. And my setup or car is not pic worthy yet. It's still in desperate need of some new paint the hot Mississippi sun has killed it. But that next on my to-do list.

Lol i know the feeling! I spent a good bit of time the other day tucking my harness and making it look nicer. I still have to find a set of wires that will fit perfectly, or have a set made up. Id rather have them made then try to do them myself i think.

Dont worry about it man... id say more then half the cars on this forum arent mint by any means. We dont judge we just want to see it in action and how you've cleaned up the swap etc and here how you like it and thoughts. God i cant wait to get this **** on the car... two weeks it will be out of storage and ill be working like a madman to get it all finished up!

Sorry got caught up in trying to find out why my water temp gauge is not working it says I'm at 180 at all times? It worked fine until now and I'm not sure my fans are coming on.

I noticed that with my car with the 24x it ran at a much more consistent temperature. Definitely check it out however. You dont want to have it over heat

The gauge moves just a little bit but never gets above 180-190.

Aslong as there isnt steam coming from your bleeder valves then your fine! Just make sure its bled properly. Ill bet money its temp is fine from the 24x lol

Yea that's what I'm thinking to. I swapped another cluster out and it does the same thing.

Lol i was surprised when i first warmed up my camaro. Got right to operating temperature and stayed there. The fans barely even kicked on.

Glad your temp problem is an issue to worry about. How bout that video already!

Just got my pcm back from my tuner with a base startup tune and will be pulling the car out of storage this weekend so should be getting started shortly!
