Well why didn't you just get a Painless harness o_0

I don't see any fuel lines on the passenger side(right side). I can go look and let you know for sure.

I priced a Painless, and his $325 vs their $500 was an obvious choice. Not to mention he also labels everything, re-looms it, and gets it ready for a direct drop in.

Thanks for looking into the fuel rails. I've HEARD there was at least one version that exited on the pass. side.

JEEZ, that seems like a lot of work! Why don't you just get the GMPP RamJet kit, 12498032? It looks to include everything, sensors, injectors, throttle body, ignition etc. You'll need to add a fuel pump, wiring harness and ECM.


Did you also consider that you'll need to install a fuel injection style fuel box in your fuel tank?

The trouble really isn't trouble at all. I like custom work. A GMPP Ramjet would have cost me a lot of money. This is a budget project.

I can run my fuel system off of a frame mounted aftermarket pump. I don;t know which one I want yet but I know roughly what I need.

Hmmm. At $1,400.00 at Summit, I would think the Ram Jet kit was a bargin compared to the effort and what you need to buy to make the LT1 intake work on a SB1.

The one I got quoted on wasn't. I wonder what differed.
