Another Hall's deal!!!

Not sure about the injectors/coils all firing, or if the manifolds hot? It does not respond to throttle input. The only mod is a cam which is a TSP 233/239 .603/.600 112 LSA. I will not be able to check injectors/coils/manifold until this weekend. Maybe not then. The guy helping me is not very consitent, which is why I ask for help on here so much.
Thanks for any help

That's a healthy cam, but not so big it shouldn't run. Stock injectors?
Lack of throttle input tells me something is pretty far wrong. You have HP Tuners, yes? Can you hook it up, do a scan and send me a copy of the .hpl file? That will get us some info. Are the oxygen sensors installed? That'll help a lot, as far as seeing what the engine is doing, combustion wise.

My brother is in need of an experienced body and paint guy to work on his truck at a fair price. Hit and run deal and insurance won't cover it. Not sure on how bad it is, he is just looking for estimates at this time. PM me with info if you have any.

While I'm here; Pulled the trigger on converting the car to e85. The offset in cost outweighs the loss in power from limited injector sizing w/o a driver box (plus that's why they make a real fuel for real power. C16). Blake also finalized the radiator mount

I won't be out this weekend (although the rain may keep everyone inside). But I am hoping in a week or two I will be ready to hit the streets.
Has anyone been out yet this year as far as hanging out? It seems like it has been so rainy lately I just figured no one was really hanging out yet.

I am really looking forward to the car scene this year. We have some big hitters like Robby, Kurt, Masey, Nick, Blake, ect. and hopefully the gas prices don't scare too many off this summer. It will be good to be back and hit the streets again for sure!

They're starting to appear up at Liberty also.
Supposed to be nice tonight, I'll have the 7 out and about. Gotta train my speedometer and get the tune sorted some more.

Just got off the phone with Precision Industries about my torque converter. Decided to tighten it up about 400 rpm and replace the clutches. It was flashing 4900 on just motor, so on the spray it'd be at least 500 over that. Should have it back by end of next week. I'm hoping the car will be back together by next Saturday. I'm already planning on taking that day off, so it'd be nice to get some seat time in it for a change.

Anybody want to help drop my new motor in the TBSS this weekend? Old motor is already out and the 454 is ready to go in. I have never done this before but not too scared. I live off Notestine between Wheelock & Schwartz. Nice shop and will provide food, beer, pop, whatever it takes!

Can't wait to see it out Scott!
Jeremy, I've got a wedding tomorrow and plans on Sunday otherwise I'd be able to lend a hand.
If this weather holds I know a few people are going to be out tonight
