Default 355 LT1 First Start
More like second start, after we plugged a giant vacum leak in the intake.

Will have more updates soon. Still need to do a little wiring, get the exhaust done up, and check out a clunking noise in the clutch....

Then its time to start street tuning

Sounds nasty! Good to see another EFI 24x kit up and running. Did you get their harness or the DIY?
