[Shortstuff]

Dammit! I can't hear it on my computer, but I bet you're happy it's running after all that stress!!

[smokey_dj]

[GLD-086]

Wow that's actually the first time I can say, I've heard a V6 that sounds mean on idle.

Would've loved to have heard it rev.

[HoZy]

Had bunch of broken wires back in the loom..

I untaped it all back an checked every wire. Then fixed & taped all back up.

P.S- Did it before the AutoElec got here, he lookd at it an goes, "So its running ey, I best be off"


EDIT:
You'll hear a 4000rpm rev later on this evening after i get teh thermostat to open an get oil & tran fluid all correct....

Good stuff mate, you should never of doubted yourself, definatelf looks the part makes for a great conversion i think. I think i know what i got planned for my next engine probably go L67 which should drop straight in and T5 bolted up at the back

How does it run on the VN tune BTW??

[HoZy]

Hows it run, Has a slight misfire at idle...

But then so did my old motor... Weird.

You'll wanna get that toughened up a bit, or the T5 will be gone in a month..
