Well, yesterday I had some minor things to do on the temp 6.0L for the Z28. I needed to add water, connect the trans fluid lines and fill the trans with fluid, then remove the VP-110 and replace it with 91 Octane (10.4 comp ratio now), then loaded a temp tune based off of the stock setup. Fired right up, but it was a tad rich. Nothing a little tuning can't fix.
The car is ready for action as soon as I reroute the brake lines and bleed the lines.

It blew a head gasket that made a nice milkshake
. When I opened it up, one of the pistons had a pin hole in it (not enough material) where the spark plug goes, and the pistons had hit the cylinder heads bending at least one exhaust valve open.
I put this in to keep Jen racing while I (re)build up the 408. Possible plans call for either supercharged or turbocharged.
But that will be about a year down the road.
