New wires?
If you have it narrowed down and you think it may be an injector or wire, just swap it with one of your others and see if it moves to the swapped cylinder.
Changing an injector around just takes a few minutes.

I'd give it to you if I had one. MS Office 2003 is pretty cheap at the exchange or PX. Is that what you guys call your form of NEX? Thought about upgrading?
-
Just curious how much warranty you have left on a 2003?

I agree that you pay for the name when you're talking lph products. I also think that in their case you're buying tested and proven performance. Tag with that one of the best companies out there that have spent numerous years and dollars testing their designs on nearly all GM vehicles. I think if money was not a huge issue for me and it was feasible to go where they are, I'd use them over most companies out there. JMO, and I'm a person that likes doing most of my own work.

HAHA... BenKey's fish count is much like his post count... something we'll never beat unless he just quits.
I wish my fish count could be that high. How goes the fatherhood stuff? How's the T-SS?

Good to hear from you, Ben
Hopefully, the less pleasant details will be resolved
and the good stuff continues
Thanks, Brian.

Good to see that things are improving. I thought about calling, but figured you were rather busy. I bet it's been great going fishing that much too...
You know you can call me any time.
-
That's great to hear man.....glad to see you back.
Adam - how goes the engine build plans? I haven't caugth up on everything yet.
-
Way to go with the fishing Ben. Hope all goes well with the wife its always better that way.
Hey Tim. I saw a truck the other day that reminded me of yours, although it was not a SS. How is the truck by the way and have you been back to P-cola lately? I miss that place. Ever come by this way?
-
Thanks for the concern guys.
All is well. Still on active duty 
Nothing has happened to preclude me from coming on here. I just have been working a lot of hours lately and when I get home it's the kid's homework, dinner, cleanup, or just tired. I had travelled quite a bit not too long ago and the long hours have been catching up on my work and some pressing issues that take away a lot of my time to even do that. I travelled 6 out of 8 weeks, going from FL 3 times, WA, HI, and CA. It has been hectic.
I have been concentrating on fishing in my bass club also. I spend a lot of time on the water trying find fish to maintain my lead on the other members. This will be the first year ever that deployments haven't kept me from fishing every tournament. I just want the big trophy at the end of the year this time. 2 tournaments left to go.
I plan to start getting on here more. My wife and I were having some issues but we have decided to work on it. So far, so good.

At this point the 90mm throttle body conversion on the electronic throttle control trucks isn't working out so well. Somewhere I have a few files that show the difference. I just haven't found them yet.
I had no issues on mine. The lower portion cracked, but it ran great.
-
Wow that sucks. I'm sure the price they charged you for the Morel lifters alone was $600 or so. You can get cheaper one for about $200. I'd get a lawyer and someone to document your findings.
Is the place that built it on any websites anywhere?
-
Good to see you finally got it in. Did you do as you said you were going to and do the corvette/f-body accessory mounts?
-
You're going to want to port the exhaust port.
-
Long tubes are simple to install also. They may require a little work to button it all up, but still easy. Unless you want to go with the Dynatechs. Nice, but cost is a little much for my taste.
-
Looks good
-
Pretty good gains for the money.
Do the Darts have any work done to them or are they the stock cast? -
Where are you at with your new setup? Whose building? What stroke assy did you go with? Cam specs, head choice, etc...??
-
I've heard of people shifting @6900. Not on stock internals or tranny though. I shift at 6500 and I know 200 more rpms wouldn't be that big of a deal. Takes me out of my comfort zone though.
-
Damn Erik.....looks like I've missed a lot. Looks good
-
They work great! You just need to do the free bumper mod
Actually, I have heard they are used as tie-downs when shipping.
Dave....Lee would be very upset if he knew you did that to his truck.
-
Wow! Sorry to hear. At least you can write about it.

454SS?

Hanes manuals aren't too bad to use.
