    What should I do with my Ty?

    My Ty is a 9300 mile White/White that has never been in the rain. Always garaged and covered. I am the original owner. I broke a piston at 5000 miles in 1995 but it was built soon after with forged pistons, cam, 2800 stall converter and a 20G turbo. It has been the fun weekend warrior until the...

    How are the stock pushrods?

    I broke my #3 intake pushrod on Saturday. Came with the cam kit along with the springs, retainers, etc. Has about 4000 miles. It is a 3 piece with the ends pressed in. Just broke the ball end off the lifter side where it was pressed in. The broken ball end was just sitting in the valley by the...

    How does the F31M Table work?

    I understand that this table can scale fueling by MAT. I just don't understand the table. The top line in the table is MAT. What is the line below in deg K? How do you make sense of this table in terms of % increase/decrease of fuel? Hoping someone can shed some light on this before I try the...

    WB O2 and Blitz SBCID Boost Controller

    Since I don't drive around with the laptop 100% of the time, I noticed that my Blitz SBCID boost controller has aux inputs. I fed the output of the WB O2 to the Blitz and set a 2 point linear calibration for the AF Ratio around 12.5:1. It will then read the AFR on the Blitz display. Since the WB...

    WB O2 Datamaster Question

    My DIY WB O2 is up and running and seems to be working fine. I modified the bin with Dig's WB code and can see the AFR in Datamaster as advertised. I did notice the commanded EGR Duty Cycle in Datamaster moves in relation to the WB AFR. It never reads 0 unless the WB is disconnected. I have the...

    MSD 8.5 Wire Question

    Anyone got these on their truck? What type of boot is on #6, angled or straight. Is the boot/contact a multiangle type so it can be bent? Will it stay in that position over time? I have the 3" PTE downpipe and I do not want the wire to contact it. Thanks

    Cat Converter Shield

    I am installing my PTE turbo kit and want to know if the cat can be installed less heat shield without heat problems. The stock heat shield is longer and there is no mounting on the new 3" cat. Seems like you would want the shield to protect the floor from heat. Anyone with any experience with...

    Failed Smog Check and False Knock? PASSED TODAY - see below

    Failed my CA smog test today. HC was 2.5 times higher than 2 years ago when it was tested. I guess it is running a little rich. I have a fair amount of mods (cam, turbo, chip, etc) but these were all on the last time it was smogged and passed easily. Installed the stock FP regulator before the...

    MAP Sensors, 1, 2 and 3 Bar

    In the old days it was easy to identify the MAP sensors. They had colored inserts that matched the connectors, Green = 1 bar, Orange = 2 bar, and Red = 3 bar (If I remember right). All had different keys so you could not plug the wrong sensor into your car. Now days, the inserts are gone but the...

    Blitz SBD-id setup question

    I just installed my SBC-id boost controller. I am running an upgrade Mitsu turbo with integral w/g. Reading some other threads said to put it in manual mode, not automatic. I have it in manual mode with a setting of 3 and a gain of 2 and it gives me 20psi of boost with a quick WOT. What...

    Front tire rub

    Lots of posts about ZR1 wheels but few comments about front tire rub. Will these wheels with 275 tires on 9.5" wheels rub anywhere? If so, where and at full lock? Can anything be done to fix the rubbing? What about a lowered suspension? I would like to know the downsides before laying down the...

    Battery Cutoff Switch

    I have relocated the battery to the back of my Ty. Drag strip wants me to install a battery cutoff switch which is easy to do except for the alternator cutoff. Does anyone know of an easy way of doing this without running the alternator wire all the way to the back of the truck to the cutoff switch?
