Ed and Dee - I saw the TBSS last night at Ezells... left a note on the window.

Also - I saw a clean 3rd gen Camaro Tuesday afternoon around Lowes with HAYUUUUGE tires on the back and a big monster tach near the a-pillar corner. It was black; anyone we know?

I snapped a few pics, will post them when I have a chance.

Also.... I'll be bringing the nitrous'd and stroked red Z06 to the Jordan Show Saturday - who all is going to be there?

I am looking for a MSD 12000 RPM pill for a MSD window switch. Trying to find one before 3/13/09. Anyone in the area got one laying around? Or even the whole 12000 series kit, even though I dont need the whole kit.

Long story, I'll try to shorten as much as possible. For some reason my tach input wire, going to the window switch, from the ecu is cutting to 2.5v after engine is running. It is supposed to be 5v square signal for the tach. Therefore with the 3000 pill in the "start spraying" spot activates the nitrous at 1500 rpm.....not good. So in order to get it to activate at 3000 RPM I have the 6000 RPM pill in the on spot, and need a 12000 pill for shut off. The 12000 pill is actually for drag bike applications. I have researched ways to fix my problem, have been looking at wiring diagrams, and even chatted with my friend who is an aircraft electrician who put an ls1 in a rx7. This is the easiest fix. I even looked into finding a 13.5 ohm resistor to change the resistor in the pill, but after factoring in work time and buying soldering gun, solder, and finding the correct resistor, I would come out cheaper buying a kit on ebay for 30 bucks.

I hope that made sense. I had been running with nothing in the off spot, but I now have a midwest fab 9 rear end with 3:89's and it hit the limiter quicker than I am used to. I am taking it to the track next weekend and just wanna be on the safe side.
