Re: Chevy Beretta FF

You need to turbo, supercharge, or do some drastic head mods before a stroker based on that graph. The head cannot support more CI.

Re: Had a wee bit of fun this weekend...

the back flow is only for asthetics or food industry when it comes to Stainless generally. I have thousands of SS exhaust components out in the field and back flow very few yet have never had a failure from the weld itself.

Re: Custom downpipes with corrrect flange for 3400 swap on Z

3100 DP's are all fixtured. All I need is a flange. I usually keep an eye out for them at the JY but I'm currently out. I will likely be going to the JY in 2 weeks and I will look again. Is anyone in the Twin Cities area that needs a DP for a 3400?

Re: Custom downpipes with corrrect flange for 3400 swap on Z

Still around, just not looking to pull a DP off and make a fixture unless I get a few orders together. If someone that wanted one lived close, I would use their car as a mock up so I didn't have to pull Kelly's.

Re: Anyone using a performance rad?

I run a stock rad, fan, heat wrapped exhaust pipes, 180* thermostat, GTZ grill with the upper section of Z26 ducting removed, Cowl hood, and never have overheating issues unless I'm road coursing it. Oh, no turbo blanket.

I bead tubing all the time. You could send me the tubes and I could do it for you.

Re: Beretta Turbo Updates

Here is one of the additions I made back in 2011 for the strip as I was hitting my speed limiter. Works Great and is yet another mod that was done without any cutting or splicing in the factory harness.

Re: Need help.....

Have any of you ever checked the ohms of your injectors or replaced them all together? The GM fat body injectors are notorious for shorting coil circuits when warm.

Re: Beretta Turbo Updates

Jon, Have not used it yet. I ordered it and did not get it in time for me to have a chance to test it. I didn't want to hit the strip on a fresh tune and it was my last chance for the year. Don't worry though, I now have OBD 1, 1.5, and 2 tuners and plan to use them all. I have plenty of different i...

Timkin are junk now as posted by Kurt earlier in the topic. I run Nationals or Moog which are still made in North America last time I ordered them.

Re: RSM Supercharger on a 3400/3500 hybrid?

Just lie to it and make it think there is still a 1 bar in it. Then adjust your tables accordingly. You lose resolution but that's what I would think to do. What about running a 98 GTP ECU?
