is this the same as your previous write-up that is already a sticky somewhere on this site?? why dont you include FI help even though this is a revision?? if you dont know anything about FI why dont you have someone write up i lil something and add it to yours with some credit to them?? overall this is awesome, i used to refer back to the first writeup all the time when i first started modding. thanks!!

You know your sending mixed signals here.....

First... this is the SAME write up as the stickey, this was the rough draft that people voted to make a stickey. It was left in circulation so that people could add comments or sudjestions.(since the write up is locked and you cant there... )

second... I thought i was pretty clear about why there is not FI section, not that i know NOTHING about FI, but I dont know enough about FI to be teaching others. (It is better to keep quite and have people quess as to your foolishness then to open your mouth and remove all dought)

third...I did not employ anyone to write a FI section for me, because a. noone offered, b. if someone did, i would need to know that they are giving honest and good scoop. (you offering?)

4th.... You said overall it was awesome, but then you voted against it choosing the "poorly writen" option... why? why use something you think is writen poorly?

I wouldn't take it personally. There's always going to be a few idiots/trolls who vote for stupid options in any internet poll. 240 to 6 is a pretty overwhelming show of approval.

Thumbs up

hot damn---finally some real truths--- i have 94z28, minor mods as it is daily driver and super streetable a6 w/273 rear and i drive 120 mi round trip almost daily---26mpg and respectable enuff for the car that it is--have done suspension mods, fuel pump, adj fuel pressure reg and programmer/thermostat primarily for shiftpoints and firmness and fans---i know its still LT1 but damn i love the torque these cars have---other car is bone stock (cept for sfcs, stbs, and lid) and when white z shifts out of 2nd the blue ss is GONE--damn the LS1 likes the rpms!

have a young friend w/ 02 firehawk, big cam, changes pushrods/rocker arms and goes to daphne, al for dyno tune---he's gettin 390 to 400rwhp on tune--
i'm just waitin' for driveshaft, tranny,(a4) or rear end to toast when he doin' his beloved burnouts-- oh well, to each his own--

an excellent informative post and i don't give a flip where you live---keep up the good work!!!!

later
