Thanks for the info.. I'll run it past him.

Heres the problem maybe you guys can help since im not a expert on LS1's

Car runs fine all day yesterday on the highway 85 + mph. Car sat overnight. Started today, no problems, ran 55+ mph on the highway. Got off highway, running side roads, AC on. Car gets cam surge, slight black smoke, dies. Cool car down, runs fine for awhile, then same scenerio. No ses light. Let it sit half hour, runs ok. Then does the same. Again, but this time with the ac off and no SES light. I checked fuel pressure before he left after putting the injectors on and with the KOEO pressure was 60psi With KOER pressure was 50psi so i don't suspect fuel pump.. im thinking a ignition problem because of the black smoke.

Mods are Patriot Stage 2 heads, Speed Inc custom cam, svo #30 injectors, SLP MAF, Stock TB, Stock intake manifold, Tr55 plugs, Magnaflow cat back, pacesetter LT headers, Walbro fuel pump, Dyno tuning done by speed inc

Car is along way from home so any help would be great. Thanks

we don't know. he just bought the car from a member of this site after speed inc finished the work on it.

He did make it to where he was going with the car, it ran fine for the remainder of the 30 min trip this is whats puzzling me.

I've seen a white Z interceptor a few times on I30 when I used to drive to TX every weekend.
