Yeah I thought so... that is the unused spare vacuum port on the LS1 intake....  BRB...


Here ya go.... cut the tip off of the port, install the vacuum line and run to the blowoff.... I have an additional line tapped at the blowoff for my meth controller boost reference....

I love the real flames on a black vehicle.

What's the fun in growing up? If you do that, you're done.  :cool:

That truck was truck of the month on pt.net a couple of months ago.  It is awesome!
 
OK. The Vortech SuperCharger is up and running. I got the oil lines installation done and tuned today. All i have to say is....WOW! Whata difference :cool:? ?

Thank you all for your help on this long going install.

Drilling & tapping the oil pan was piece of cake but manouvering the cordless drill and my skinny hands where no fun in a tight area. Anywho,is done.

I was able to upload a stock tune,changed the VIN with HPTune and uploaded the Predator.

Ok.? ?Whats next? >:D

Looks like your almost there. When do you get to crank it up and take it for a spin?

I did.  I did floored it but i got scared in fear of busting a nut or something so i let go.  I dont know if theres a break-in-period.
 
Dang!  I had an oil leak from the feeder hose adapter. I pulled it out and found out i had the 2 gaskets backwards.  Fixed. :cool:
