Haven't changed. Guy who did install said he swapped out TB with another nad it didn't change, but that was pre LS6 removal.

ah ok. then that saves me some money

so its not the tb, not the maf, not the intake, not the oil......have we eliminated anything else?

Maybe a minor leak somewhere letting air in at some point? Wouldn't any unmetered air cause a dip?

**ninobrn99** · 12-02-2006, 08:23 PM

or lack there of. if it was unmetered air, id be able to see my ltrims be different on one bank vs the other. i got a new wideband and still need to install it, so i guess that'll tell me for sure. i have two bungs welded so i can put the wb in the driver or pass. side.

**ninobrn99** · 12-02-2006, 09:02 PM

are you leaking any oil from the front cover? when u did the cam install, did u change your timing cover gasket? i know mine is leaking a bit. could it be possible thqat the compression is leaking?

So much for me going to bed. Ugh....hmm....well new LS6 oil pump was installed, also LS2 timing belt while he was in there. plus all new gaskets.....no oil leaking

**ninobrn99** · 12-02-2006, 09:17 PM

then there goes that idea. then what the hell does that leave? maybe the header gaskets? i mean, mine are new, but they could be leaking, but i wouldnt think that it would cause the dip.

Headers should have nothing to do with it. Wonder if it's a tuning issue that needs a skilled tuner to iron out.

id say the mike and bill both are. i feel it is something mechanical. what crank pulley do u have? u/d or stock?

stock....gotta remember, Bill tried to tune mine while the LS6 was still onthere wreaking havoc with unmetered air. I don't want to shell out the $600 he charges for tunes now that he has a bigger business going.

**ninobrn99** · 12-02-2006, 09:34 PM

i know. i do my own tuning for that reason.

**ninobrn99** · 12-02-2006, 09:38 PM

Go back and look at that thread, Jimmyblue posted a HPTuners tune that he said corrected the problem for another customer. Maybe you could slap that on there and see if it takes.
