Man it fired nd never missed a beat for 20 minutes. I watched it and it ran smooth as silk...it never onced bobbled or shook or anything. Of course the tune has to be correct too...but this motor is quiet. In fact this motor is quieter than my stock motor...at least right now..We'll see how it continues...

You definately did it right Dave! You and Cali HP will be disrupting the sleep patterns and causing feelings of inadequacy for the Kenne Bell boys for years to come! LOL Awesome!!

What an animal you've got on your hands! I can't wait to see what kind of results you get out of this!!!

well it runs good at idle and at little throttle, but crack the throttle a little and it shuts off and the "little wrench" gets thrown at me. Left me on the side of the road tonight. The tranny shift strategies are all jacked up. Its shifting too early and lugging...almost like the wheels or gears are set wrong in the tune. It all worked fine before I took the car apart for the engine build...I'm bummed

[FONT=&quot]Joe what codes is it showing? Have you rechecked all the connections to the TB? I have seen trouble like this described before and it usually ended up having to do with the TB.

I have the V10 GT500 T/B...maybe thats it...but I had to clear the codes and start over..it had some other stuff in it from start up...so I will see soon what codes it gives...
The tranny shifting is all jacked...THAT is in the tune for sure

 

[matt texass]

hmmm wat did you change from the tune last time.... i dont see the motor changing the shifting.

on another note how long did it take for your motor from mmr?

I'm convinced its a tune issue.
The motor took 4 weeks
