Well, I’m new here but used a lot of this thread to build a 406 small block with the marine intake and Black Bear Tune. Should have it going this weekend. Last couple guys had questions I could probably help with if you’re still out there. Stay tuned...

How'd it turn out?

I just wanted to say Hi to everyone. So far our respirator vacancy remains at 78%, we are flattening the curve nicely.

Stay safe all.

That 490hp LS3 is an LS3 with the GEN3/4 version of the old GEN 1E/!! SBC camshaft 219/229 0.525"/0.525" Anywho, he's the p/n of the oilpan kit that comes with that engine 19212593. It says its 5 quart, filter another quart for 6. The new mid engine GEN-V SBC DI is running 490hp OEM stock. Those exh...

Yes, it's still alive, but it's been quiet.

Any progress on this?

I just have the words " could be a major PITA" floating around in my head as I contemplate your tranny swap, I mean Automatic Transmission Retro-fit.

Hey guys.....well....I do have a Burb project coming up....that is to get it back on the road. Back wheel came off on the freeway doing 110kph (about 70mph) with 7 people on board. It was 4am...2.5hrs from home...heading to Sydney for a Martial Arts seminar I was teaching at. Very lucky no 'serious...

Never heard of that one.

Glad you are enjoying that super ultra range of that oil burner. Those Duramaxs sure work well.

Take care Rob

Glad it looks like you've got it licked. Nothing more frustrating than having some small detail holding a project back, esp. with a bunch of new hardware you really want to try out.

Nice.

I've got a 1974 JD 112 12 hp Kohler single cylinder, 4 speed manual, triple blade 38" deck that I've been nursing for the last while. It needs an engine, but its done well for cutting the same acre of land for the last 45 years.

I hope all is well with you.

LOL that a good one Speeder. For the last 20 years I've always known you to be a staunch supporter of the 4l60E trans family esp. when installed in the fullsized GM trucks.

The GEN 6 BBC 454 that was used in the motoholmes and Kodiak trucks used an alkuminum front timing cover that holds the Crankshaft position sensor used to work with the 24x reluctor wheel. The RPO is L21, whereas the 'normal" LD Vortec 454's carry rpo L29. The L21 is a Vortyec 454 that uses a 24x re...

That is pretty cool. Now we just need something similar for the paint job. Get a scratch, the paint self-heals itself.

I had an L31 5.7 that started to act weird. I had an extra coil and that solved it. I had always thought that a coil failure was either a GO or NO-GO sort of situation when they failed, but they can actually degrade in performance apparently. It's an easy swap if you've got one laying around. The st...

Thanks for the thanks.

Best wishes to all.

By those codes they hooked up the rear O2 sensors and NOT the fronts. Non functioning front O2 sensors will run like garbage when in closed loop, but should run fine in open loop. After a warm up try a WOT pass as the blackbox switches to OPEN Loop(PE Mode) and doesnt read the O2 sensors at all when...
