I guess what should be noted is I don’t tune “against the knock sensor”, I tune by AFR and EGT and usually run it on the fat end with 91. (11 or 11.5:1, boost dependent) If I do see knock, I adjust timing or fuel depending on RPM/AFR.
This thread does confirm my original thoughts, 4L80 is...
I guess what I am used to is how dsmlink does it. The ecu looks at knock retard and allows you to program when the light turns on based on the number of degrees of retard. Most run this around 5 degrees, I go for 2. I’ve done this on 91 pump and E and had terrific results. Even with stock rods &...
I should also note, the Dsmlink tuning software will flash the check engine light for if the knock sensor sees knock. (Adjustable setting). Any idea if terminator or anyone else has a similar option?
edit: I should probably start a build thread but this project might not fully take off for some...
Oh I am no stranger to E. Love the stuff in my talon. Miracle fuel but finding gas stations that sell it while on a road trip can make the trip less pleasurable.
My talon runs a stroked 2.4 with a 3586 turbo. Average boost levels were 27 psi but saw enough air flow at 30 psi for ~600 hp and then...
Haven’t had time to research the injectors but assumed I would need to go larger. Would be great to find an option that could also run E.
very, very early into this project. Lots of R&D and decisions to still be made.
but yes, long trips will likely happen. Minneapolis is 2.5 hrs. Likely the...
Ecu has not been determined, current one is a standalone for marine or industrial use. Got a deal on the motor, had to move fast and haven’t had time yet to make too many decisions
Yes, I should mention that I do want a 4 speed. Specially with the engine already being computer controlled, I’d stay with an electric trans.
still need to dig but does Holley Terminator have trans control options?
Recently picked up an LSA for my 84 Cutlass. Plan is for this to be a driver, automatic, pump gas, cammed, 15-18 lbs of boost.
So, I’m wondering, what trans? I’m told 4L80’s are heavy, both physically and rotational weight. I hear 4L65’s are another option?
I guess I don’t have pictures of the headlights I bought for my Cutlass. Here is an example of the Bandit, one with oem style lights and one with projectors:
I like the sunken in look of the quad light setup, but I prefer the composite headlight look. So for mine, I’m going to use the quad headlight header panel and some eBay headlights for a 90-98 Silverado. Same deal as what they used on the Year One Bandit Trans Am...
CHEMICAL STRIPPER!! Saves allot of elbow grease.
I use air craft remover and a brush, staying about a half inch away from edges like door or trunk jambs. Unless you plan to strip those too.
Once the paint wrinkles, I scrape it down with a body filler spreader.
Once dry, then I DA with 80 grit.
So sorry to hear, sometimes I think it’s harder than loosing a relative because we can communicate with them.
My girl KC is my first to call my own and she is almost 11. I think about how short our time together is. Also I’ve never had to be there when either of my parents dogs were sent to...
