So many toys and so little time...........LOL.

as steve said i'm now in gto mode, been slacking off on that project! the boat has been running well, so its kinda backburnered for now. how has everyone been doing?

[Liberator*21]

Glad to hear she's run'n well Charlie, fully understand your position. Enjoy your play time.

Like I said earlier, had a great time with you guys when I was there.

also applicable to the GTO
only needs someone to try it out

[mrcrsr]

i'm going to pilfer the 5 speed tremec from the camaro, and the camaro is getting a 4l80e-electronically controlled turbo 400 w/ overdrive-ronnie, you could probably answer this-will a microsquirt computer run that transmission or do i need to order another wolf ecu?

[PanRonnie]

that,s outside my comfort zone
but there seems to be a lot out there for the transmission

but it,s probably best to ask there

[PanRonnie]

it,s been quit for so long here just thought i throw this in
wat do you think
scale is rubbisch as are the finer details offcourse but you get the idea !
could possibly add a slide intake

[PanRonnie]

something like this

[Liberator*21]

Ronnie, You thinking of a slide type throttle control similar to Tony's SVS System, should work. It worked great on the SVS I had on my ol 250 EFI.

[PanRonnie]

yes exactly
you would be able to tune the air flow to the engine
not only by the lenght of the intake spacer but also the flow size inside the spacer restricting it or opening it up
unfortunately getting that base plate machined will cost an arm and a leg
maybe it,s an idea to cast that in epoxy resin with the cut out,s put in as inserts bolt holes are not that difficult to machine
or maybe 3D printing is around the corner would also make it a lot easier with the intake spacer,s
but it,s very low on my to do list
since i don,t own a johnny rude but maybe i gave someone an idea

the Technicolor version

[mrcrsr]

in my spare time i have been trying to find plugs to blank off the injector ports in the mad efi intake, my first thought was brass freezeout plugs- aprox 13/16 diameter- but they only make them in steel that size, any ideas? mad efi does not make block off plugs for the 3 litre intake

[Liberator*21]

Charlie, 1/4-18 NPT Tap fits the existing injector holes nicely, just don't tap to deep add brass plugs.....done. Apply some pipe thread sealer and your good to go. Holes are fully reusable.

[PanRonnie]

rubber insert with a cover/block off plate maybe?

[mrcrsr]

that would work gary, I just didn't want to damage it if the horn performed better. there's always a quest for some more horses, lol! on another note I am getting ready to do captain steves engine again after the cylinder head fiasco from the man to my south, I am going to go a lil further on the port timing, as the trick would pull like a farm implement up to 6500 and then would slowly pull to 6800, at 100 mph. probably could've put more wheel on it to go faster.
