*** Been a Long Time Since I Started a Train May TRAIN ***

Did you pull the back seats?


I bet that floor matting is piss soaked.


Just hope they didn't chew any wiring.

Yeah....back seat is where I found the nest and yes....it was pretty nasty. Don't think they've chewed any important wires because everything seems to be working. My led to the wideband isn't working but that could be coincidence. That inspection camera will save me some work. I have a feeling there's going to be one up in the dash but don't want to tear that out unless I know for sure.

Good luck carpet swap is a PITA but then again I installed heat/sound deadner too.


I don't have a rodent problem, I have a free roaming cat problem. For some reason the little bastards love to walk all over my car.

Owner sent me pics of the new wheels on the car. Looks good, needs some detailing, but she definitely will need the Strano touch.
For an in-town DD with some spirited driving, is there any point in paying more for the 3-point over 2-point SFCs? That will probably be our first purchase for the car.

To be honest for your purpose no. If it was a track, autox or convertible I would say yes then.

Thanks, I've been away from F-bodies too long to remember all this stuff. Too lazy to search on my own and I knew you'd have the answer right away Scott

That bird looks good, any more pics.

I know the feeling. It's pretty sad how rusty I've gotten on everything not having done any real work to my car in so long. It's taking forever for any memory of tuning to come back to me. I never was a great tuner but I knew it well enough to get a car tuned. Now I'm having to go back over all the stuff again to refresh my memory on even the simple stuff. It doesn't help that the software has changed so much since I did it last.

My biggest problem is bouncing back and forth now between two totally different setups. Absorbing all this new info for my current car and trying to remember crap from 5-10 years ago, while also pulling more duty at work than I ever have is impossible. I'm glad I still have the forums to fall back on for now. I don't know jack about tuning, but I do (hopefully) remember enough about mods/gains that I think the current tune on the car left some HP on the table... it has the Torquer V2 cam, I believe ported heads, springs and rockers from TSP, Racetronix fuel pump, LS6 intake and throttle body...seems like 362/366 is a bit low for that, am I wrong? Not sure if the injectors have been upgraded, maybe that's the limiter?

Was it on a mustang dyno? My 2000 T/A put down 376whp on a portable mustang dyno with a similar cam, ported 243s and a ls6 intake, longtube back exhaust. Put down 420ishwhp on the dynojet that was used for the tuning.

Dynojet, I'll put the pic in this post when I find it.



There was no baseline tune that I know of, so still a bit hard to judge.

[Zinergy]

It is hard to judge without a baseline tune. The real world test would be trap speed in the 1/4. That is really low for a dynojet with those mods but as long as the car runs strong dyno numbers are just numbers.

Good judge will be getting beside the wife and running against mine on the way home

There are a few with the speedline wheels still on them. I'll get them uploaded and share in a little bit.

Edit: Here's a Dropbox link. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tw8bwlp5t...AY5xasUoa?dl=0

[0rion]

is that a 6 speed car or auto and does it have headers? Those numbers are low....definitely something missing there. Either info or mods.

[SMWS6TA]

Auto in the pics he link to.

[Y2KArcticSS]

Auto, has TSP 1-7/8" Longtubes, Yank 3000 stall & Transgo kit
