Dude- Check where the fuel line banjo's into the connector down by the driver's side engine mount. I left mine loose and made a puddle after my engine swap. Then I found the fuel line was loose up where the fuel pulsation dampner banjo's in. I'm an idiot. : )

LMAO! :yelrotflm Hell, for $200+, get an aluminum 2 row core radiator.

Well, if it only misses under boost, I think you do have a gap problem.

Well, I had Turbo Dave do my Intercooler piping and exhaust fabrication, and I can say that his work is pretty good, on that end, don't know about swap work. My only problem with my setup is that he ran the piping up under the headlight instead of the side(OEM) entry, which makes it a real...

What's NTI? I'm in Mooresville every so often.

I didn't see you mention in the thread, but how old are the wires? Maybe check the resistance on them, and more importantly, check to make sure the boots that go onto the plugs are completely DRY. Any oil/water/coolant that gets on them can make the wires ground to the cylinder head instead of...

There is a diagnostic procedure in the TSRM I believe. I also know that the supermonitor runs trouble codes for the CC.

I ran the 4.3 non-LSD for about a year, and didn't notice any difference in acceleration when I switched to 3.9 LSD. But I was ready to sacrifice a bit of off-the-line acceleration in exchange for lower highway rpm's, just didn't feel a change.

Check your cold start injector. it might be stuck open, or incorrectly told to open by a bad temp sensor? That would make it run richer.

Um, I think you pretty much mentioned most of what could be wrong. New accordian hoses are relatively cheap. Also check to make sure the afm harness is tight. Also, why do you have NO oil pressure?

Well, that's news to me. I thought abs and non-abs hubs were the exact same size, and therefore the discs as well. If we're talking 1-2mm, then I would THINK you could have the discs machined, but that's kinda playing with fire, you know? why not source a set of hubs that fit them?

Wired my FAL's to two separate relays, run by a temp sensor threaded into the bvsv postion. They come on at around 205, and shut off around 195. I also have a manual override. I plan on moving the temp sensor into the bottom of the radiator though, for better temp readings. when the coolant...

Yeah, you got jacked. Get your money back, man. Which yard did you deal with? If they don't have the right tranny, try Jarco inc. in Canton. They import ALOT of 7m stuff.

I swapped an 88 7mgte into an 88na. You don't need the turbo pressure sensor hooked up. AFAIK, it's just for the oem gauge, because I've never had any problems not using the sensor. If you hook up an aftermarket gauge, you can choose either an electrical, which comes with it's own sensor, or a...

I've used that clutch/ PP setup, no problems

Those GC's look ok, but at $400, AND a set of good struts(~$400)... WHY not get actual coil-over shocks? http://www.prostreetonline.com/x/nex-ss-coilovers.asp That's just one example. I know some people have tried Megans with good results.

Not sure I understand... Are you saying that the accordian pipe has oil in it? How much? If it's only a bit, it's prolly from the PVC-type(that's prolly not what I should call it) plumbing. Notice the pipe that connects both valve covers to both the throttle body and to the accordian hose...

That's waay to mushy to be right. Like GabbyVip said, one of your bushings is dead/ MIA, or the bolts are loose that hold the shifter down.

Cool update. Lemme know If you need any help or parts.

I just installed my new engine, And did some loading on the rings. I let it warm up completely and cool down twice, then took it out and ran it up and dragged it down from 1500rpms, to 4000 rpms, about 15 times, and not over 3psi boost. It wasn't exactly the way that one thread states to do it...
