Default Lethal birds 24x thread

Going to do my best to get it all done tomorrow.

How i mounted the coils.

All i need to do now is get some spark plug wires or shorten mine, send the pcm off for a mail order tune, finish my harness, and obviously clean that engine bay.

Yea it was a pretty tight fit. I have the long lt1 wires on them for now just tied up tucked out of the way. Ill worry about custom plug wires when i'm done and she runs. I also still need to get a 96-97 knock sensor.

Why wouldn't not? It's required per Efi Connection's instructions. I'm using one.

Are you trying to refer to the crank sensor?

I don't plan on running one. The way i understood you can use 2 but its ok to only run one.

I scrapped together what i could and have been selling off everything that i didnt need off my car. IMO itll be worth it. the harness is 18 years old and has seen better days. I just wish it was here already
