Can'tremember - are you running wide band O2 gauge? If so, is it showing rich? Maybe hook up MT2500 and watch O2 readings and graph. See if it is rich constantly or at certain rpm range. Are you running the 25# injectors?

i am running a wideband, but the gauge is all over the place. so im gonna have to watch the o2 readings. even the the precat is only measuring one bank, and the post cat isnt hooked up yet.

well, looks like i gotta buy more parts. damn... think the shift linkage is bent, cause i have adjusted the linkage, and it still isnt perfect. it will shift all the way down to 2nd, but wont go any further because the shifter is at the bottom, even though the trans isnt in 1st.

also learned that the trans pressure line connection is stripped. so its leaking, no, more like pissing out. so i need to replace that line, and the connector at the trans.

so irritated right now.. if its not one thing, its another.
