Ya it has been quite lol but looks like im the only one spending any money whats up with that???

Well i got my Green LED interior all in and working. Looks sweet and different which is what i like. Also bought a License plate LED setup with white and red LED's it should look pretty sweet.

Tim From PTC called me and told me hes gunna have my converter shipped out by the middle of this week for the TH350. I bought a new BMR Crossmemeber friday from Thunder racing it should prob be here tomorrow i hope. Hoping to get it in this week and get the cam in maybe but we will just have to see and may have to wait til the next weekend to do the springs, cam, timing chain, and all that good stuff .

Any updates on your 4L80E problems you were having? You get all those bugs out?

Well I would like to get an SLP underdrive pulley before i do the cam install seeing as ill be down there anyways. After the cam i guess ill either get gomer to tune it or get marcus to tune bc i know both of them have got years of experience and ive seen some of their tuned cars haul some ***.

I hear ya... Seems like your making good progress. You put green leds in the red car? or the green car? I made my tag light a couple years ago with LED and curcuit board. I think I have right at 22leds on in it. Its so bright.

Yeah Ive heard alot about marcus's tunning abilities. Didnt you by HPtuners? Why not do it your self? Its really not that bad, just read all the stickes in the PCM section and you'll get the hang of it quick.

Honestly, I havent even touched my car. Havent really did any thing on any LS1 lately. I tuned a 98 Z28 last sunday, and 99 WS6 a couple days before but thats it. Ive bought two 87 supra's/turbo/5spd that ive been working on. Going to make me a new DD. Maybe since its suppose to nice this weekend Ill swap my dipstick tube out and Ill be done with my car. Just cant find enough time to do all this stuff. So if anybody has any spare time they want to sell let me know. Im interested.

I put green LED's in the red car bc i wanted to be different and not like everyone else with the blue and white.
Ya ive got the HPtuners but i really have no clue what to mess with like for the cam and stuff like that, so it will idle at a light in 1st gear and all that good stuff. I wish someone could do like a tutoring program lol i would be on that bc i would like to learn but i dont wana jack my car up trying to though. I prob need to ask Marcus if he could show me a thing or two on it like what to mess with and stuff like that. I know gomer only does Dyno tunes, he doesn't really do it as a street tune. Marcus will prob ride with me around and see what it does and mess with it from there and and just keep doing that til he gets it right.

LOL, christmas isnt until December! JK! Its not as bad as it sounds, its fairly simple once you learn the basics. And if you save a stock untouched tune from your car even if you did make changes that wasnt right you could put the stock tune back in. Its takes time though, Ive had HPTuners for over 2 years and im still learning. The H/C cars are easy, it the bigger ci motors that a pita... I cant tell you how many hours I have ridding around logging then changing things. It gets addicitve once you get the hang of it.

I wish! Only payed $2000 for both of them. One needs a transmission and the other needed a head gasket. So between two of them I can make a good car, lol. Both are clean straight cars so I figured why not.

BJ- you still dating the Springville Gal? if so like I mentioned before next time your out that way give me a call, Ill show you a few things. My interior is all bright white LED's but they look blue after I put them in.

Yeah, there wasnt ever anything wrong with the trans. It was just hitting the trans tunnel causing vibration on the inside. I havent even bothered fixing it yet though. I may just ride up there sunday and watch if I can get time.
