Ok bit of an update.
so as mentioned all the injector plugs on the loom are pulsing, I had one off at a time and they were lighting up while cranking. I had checked spark on all the spark plugs, made sure the leads are all on. They looked a little carboned but not wet. And having replaced the pump with a spare I decided to make a small loom with…[Read more]

Could anyone tell me what they did regarding the LS1 front steam pipes. I’m not looking to block them completely, but more so asking the question if i need to run the factory setup which is via the throttle body?
if i understand the factory setup properly, it is used for vehicles in cold climates to keep the throttle from freezing up
Can i by…[Read more]

I ended up buying a balancer install tool, Balancer went on no issues. It’s all torqued up. Engine has been all cleaned up. Will get the transmission bolted up in the next few days and start fitting some of the accessories and engine and battery looms
then i just need to start pulling apart the VY Berlina

thanks, misread that.
i haven’t got a specific tool to install it, was just going to lock the flexplate up and put it on most of the way with the old bolt, then remove the old bolt and finish up with the new ARP Bolt i have. the rest of the way?
is there another way?

I have r…[Read more]

Just wondering if there is a different between a VX LS1 and VY LS1 throttle body. In particular, where the cruise control cable connects to the little stud(non traction control car)
The engine, which I’m about to put in my VY Ute was originally from a VX. I’ve bought a VY cruise control module from a VY SS Ute, but the clip on the end of the cab…[Read more]

Yeah, that’s it. Lacked a bit of motivation, time and funds to a degree. Back into it bit by bit, I’ll get there eventually.
