    My Creampuff NA Build

    Jack is 100% correct. The VEC is (by today's standard) a carb when fuel injection is the standard. Just addressing the question. On a non-related note....The AEM up for sale is really keeping me awake at night.... just saying.

    My Creampuff NA Build

    Open your VEC software with your tune and go to the fuel tables. You can mess with STFT by modifying the fuel load and fuel RPM tables to get your rich/lean idle a bit closer to what the 02 are chasing. At idle for instance, get to the RPM table that is closest to your indicated RPM...I think...

    Found 2 Metal Shavings in oil. What now?

    The scoring on the skirt is called "black death" by my machinist...from running too close of a piston/cylinder clearance on boosted applications. Not sure if that term is an industry standard since I had never heard it refered to as that. When I was redoing my bent rod, I had a bit of scoring...

    Catch cans have moisture in them, not oil

    Same with mine. Normal. I vent it back into the left side of the stock airbox out of my catch can.

    SCT - Hands On

    We need the trail-blazers like you Jack!! Keep up the good work. Some of us diehard DIY'ers will catch the SCT fever at some point. I was at the Kennedy Space Center a few weeks ago and figured if they could do what they did during the space program in the 60's with slide rulers and such. I...

    New wheels on the GTS

    Gawd...even my wife questioned the wheels when I showed her this thread...you know women and shoes. Quote: "What's the deal with the wheels???" She did love the poop wheels though!

    SCT - Hands On

    Yup.. the collective knowledge base is growing regarding the SCT which is good to see. Funny reading some of my older posts on this subject since I'm still without a SCT solution for my set-up. Too busy to tinker.

    I'm confused, what material are the side sills?

    Normal base/clear. Use flex agent in the primer coat and clear...not base color (according to my paint supplier).

    Corvette owner moved after I moved to the street

    It is pretty funny wrecking others' "moments" when the Snake arrives. It can be at the coffee shop, drive in, or gas station. The jaws just drop, whispers can be heard, and the wanna-bees start to get really nervous, fidgity, and aloof. The best strategy I use is to just act like its just a...

    VEC-II Abnomalies

    Sent the VEC into Sean a few years ago and had it upgraded. Called him about it and he basically stated that either the unit works or it doesn't and if I sent it in, all they could do is to verify its operation. From all outward apprearances, it seems to be working. I might have to try and...

    VEC-II Abnomalies

    Anyone experience their VEC acting up when it gets hot (the VEC that is)? I seem to be having a situation where my VEC craps-out once it gets hot under the hood Seems to be OK when cold). Possibly from getting wet a few times. I cleaned the circuit board a few times (corrosion on the aux box)...

    Bitten: So what do I have to do, in order to get a part from Dodge?

    I though in an uncontrolled spin it was "neutral stick and rudder."

    OK, who was this

    Made me think Will Ferrell was narrating at the start...pretty good. Makes me think back to my USMC days..."This is my rifle...there are many like it but this one is mine...."

    New Viper Mod

    Just saw this thread and for once..I agree with RussM..and that takes a lot from me. I find it funny no one has mentioned the impact harmonics and resonance across the operaating envelope has on intake design, flow, runner diameter, runner length, injector location, etcetera. Its not at all...
