Are you tired of ?

This is my truck, I'm able to watch live data from my android based radio. LS engines are great. Fuel injection and technology is something to embrace not run from.

I can plug my laptop into my CCC system with freeware and do the same thing, only alot cheaper.

Old tech is something not to always run away from either.

i will be honest. taking off my pants and running dick first into a box fan would probably have been a better idea.

I feel the same way about the Series II install!

One of the funniest descriptions I've ever seen.

personally I get more satisfaction from building my quadrajet and seeing on how well I did with my wideband a/f gauge.

That's how I found out I wasn't gay. I tried it once and didn't like it!

You'd rather be miserable instead of gay??....gay as in the genuine definition, lighthearted and carefree, and not the hijacked one...😀

i said to hell with V6 and V8 and swapped a toyota straight 6 into mine. just to be different... i will be honest. taking off my pants and running dick first into a box fan would probably have been a better idea. but it starts up when i reach in and turn the key every time. way better than my 3.8 did. LS engines are better than small block engines in every way. but like you said everyone has done it. its not because of a bandwagon thing. its because it works. yea you get people that are all like "ima take that dang o' fuel injection off of that LS engine and make it even better" thats sh*t... if it were better with a carb then it would come from the factory with one. its more like " let me take that fuel injection off cause i dont know how it works and im not willing to learn" fuel injection is way easier than most people think. if you just pull a harness and computer off of a truck with the 5.3 you are getting anyway then its all there and you can get the data link connector and read most any data you want off of the computer. even while you are driving. its like having a lab scope in your car at all times. you take the factory computer and you hook up a few wires. key hot, battery hot, ground. depending on what engine you put in it. you may have 2 key hots or 2 battery hots or both. probably 2 or 3 grounds. the engine harness will be already on the engine anyway. just make sure everything is plugged in. your engine harness will plug into the computer and thats it. your starter harness will be kinda stand alone. big wire goes to the big terminal. small wire goes to the start signal from your ignition switch. starter grounds to the block. if you look at my regal post you can see a simple way to make an electric fuel pump work off of the factory sending unit. just remember to go replace all of your fuel hoses with fuel injection hose. and get better hose clamps. make the swap in steps. dont look at it all at once just look at it in each step. (mounting, starting, fuel, main harness, cooling). dont get just settle for what you know. learn something that you dont know. read about it, watch youtube videos. ask questions on forums.

Got good laugh out of this. Loved the post.

I run TBI, I wonder if I could do the same? Could you point me in a direction?

Your lawyer is showing. 😛
I was referring to building Q-jets with leaky throttle shaft bushings. Actually tried that several times and bought a Demon that I can barely tune, either.🙄
