i finally started up the car.
the timing is 2 deg advanced.
sounds pretty mean. but i took it to get either a y pipe with the lm1 set up or a dual slp lm1 set up.
the only problem im having is when i turn it off it revs up an then turns off.
another one is that idk if it was because it has open headers an nothing else, but it feels slugish around 3k rpm
the timing is 2 deg advanced.

not yet maybe once I add my bottle, and my injectors an gears.
im pretty sure it is, im going to look for a cheap used one see what I can find
well thats another thing, I don't want to spend a lot of money into this motor since im saving up rite now for a lq9 and t56. I really want an lsx engine in it, and maybe if i get it, try getting an sts kit on there.

hoses, air deflector (air damn), radiator cap, water pump, fan switch (get 160*) also make sure nothing is blocking the air that should be flowing through the radiator i.e bags and trash
