pencero said:It looks like the 'guy with the 252 number' is Brian Harris who I believe is the same person I talked to on the phone since the shop is in NC & looks like he changed his # to a 336 now. He was very nice and I couldn't get him to stop talking about TBI on the phone this guy lives/ breathes to help people modify these type of engines and I notice now he has added an entire longwinded explanation page specifically about the 4.3 - which has no turbo charger setup on it. He claims buying the supercharger setup = 320 hp maximum & that's probably in conjunction with a specific set of modifications I'd assume
One tip he kept stressing to me on the phone is oil pressure is very important and that I needed to replace the 'oil pressure sending unit' before I did anything else or I was 'wasting my time'. I hooked up a gauge @ my friend's house later that week to make sure he knew what he was talking about & sure enough the oil pressure was far below factory reccomendation (my motor is still stock I never did end up modifying anything on the car yet - although I did get the sending unit lol)
Not trying to be rude here, but Brian from TBI is a dick. I can post emails where he insisted all this stuff had to be done or I was "wasting" my time. He called my friend Jake, who is an excellent mechanic who has built some superbly nice and powerfull chevy's "a moron". Brian can kiss my *ss while I do big smokey burnouts down the street with my 2:73 gears!
