      Ooh, its getting close now!!! I'm going to feel accomplished if I get my long tubes swapped over in the next week, i dont know how you can pull and install an engine that quickly. My luck, I'd break every bolt in the process. haha

            thanks guys, been working pretty hard on it gets frustrating at times but its really paying off!!
            i really wanted to do some wire hide mods and paint my engine bay but that will be done over next winter i hope.

            does anyone know how safe it would be to drive my car untuned to tune shop 1Hr drive? still have stock fuel pump in.

            also any tuners on here that could help me with something to get by for a week or 2 so i can schedule my dyno tune appointment.

                If it has stock injectors you should be alright. Its just going to be rich down low.

                    Get it flashed by someone who knows what there doing or tow it. Never try and drive a car with larger injectors than its tuned for.

                        ran it for awhile filled coolant up and burped the system a few cycles staying at correct temp after filled!

                        this thing sounds great still have some minor things to do

                              whos tuning the car? You should be able to take them your PCM and have them load a drivable base tune on it to get it to the shop.
