You must drop the pan. They do make a plug to go in the tail shaft.

Without knowing your goals, there are a million possible answers. A good first step is the HotCam kit from GMPP. It is a little more aggressive cam, LT4 springs, and 1.6 roller rockers.

Make sure you ohm the injectors. Shorted injectors can fry the drivers in the ECM.

The ECM handles the advance. Did you set the timing with the est disconnected? If so. did you hook it back up?

Someone asked him how many of these solid axle conversions he had built and he declined to answer. Speaks volumes.

You now must believe everything I say without question! :thumbleft:

You can use a 12V buzzer in place of the fuse that is blowing to allow you to find the overload. Sounds internal to the ECM.

Three things are required to enter closed loop.
1. A preset amount of time has passed. 2. The coolant temp above a preset value. 3. A hot, functioning O2 sensor. Can you scan this car? Stop running it with open headers.

I warned you that the O2 sensors would not operate properly with open headers. May need heated sensors. I put them on my old 86 when I put long tubes on. Borrow a trailer and get the exhaust fixed!

How did you determine the low current drain and what is the reading?
When the battery goes down, you say it won't start. Does it turn over?

I have been flying airliners for 20 years and that scared me. Some pretty crappy techniques there. I am amazed the gear held up through some of those crab landings. A couple of them were nicely done.

Thanks guys - I went to Advance Auto and looked at the crap they had on the shelf and walked out empty handed. I'm probably going to order the ARP bolts from Summit and then use the accessory bracket bolts from my factory fasteners with the shoulders ground off. That's what I did on my 86.

My 86 had flat top pistons with 4 small valve reliefs and it was 9.5:1. I would love to see a photo of a dished stock piston from a Corvette L98.
I would be willing to chip in on a call to Gordon.
