    when the stereo's on the lights flicker and the car runs rough!

    as everyone else has said check your wiring but whilst youre at it i would suggest adding a secondary thicker cable from alternator to battery, negative to chassis, and negative to block, my stereo use to cause issues with lighting aswell. the problem is, the car is made to run perfectly on it...

    WH v8 to WK conversion

    my WH has a walbro pump so was thinking i could just drop the whole tank from wh and put on WK, im thinking they are the same chassis and most parts will transfer over, my concern is wiring side.

    5.7 fuel consumption

    lol I quit arguing over something so trivial when all the OP did was ask a question. OP asked about fuel consumption. I gave an answer. Maybe most of you complaining about fuel in a LS1 are the ones who have to hear their exhaust every stop lights. It's not hard to get good fuel consumption out...

    5.7 fuel consumption

    It's also a 6speed. 110km/h is literally just above idle which helps

    5.7 fuel consumption

    like i said, went away with family, did over 2000km, the read out is right, matched up to servos pumps, like i said do some research, open roads and can get tunes that change fuel mixtures with cruise control, well done on being failures

    5.7 fuel consumption

    Unfortunately I don't have rest because didn't need it. It was a pic to show family members on holiday. So they all knew average speed and Km's as we all did the same but to be honest why would I lie about something so trivial lol. Next time I'm out on road I'll get another one just for you ok...

    Got a multimeter. I know you've said you checked fuses. But the big "main" fuse under bonnet. Check if there is voltage at it

    stuck

    i guessed it was ebay, as your car only has an exhaust and you said it was a 300kw tune, which it isnt by the way, so presumed ebay tune as they all quote 300kw which isnt true for only an exhaust

    is that a ebay tune?
