Not the biggest fan of my oil looking like this. Going to go pick up a rad pressure tester and more oil change supplies and swap it again. I'm not losing much, if any, coolant to my knowledge so Im...

Few pictures of the chaos. In the 3rd Pic you can see how little clearance there is from that rad hose to the belt. Makes me super nervous. You can see how there's wires just supported by my spark...
Yeah, I let it run for ~10 mins this morning and the Tach was still reading ~2k. I definitely still have a vacuum leak somewhere. I suspect my HVAC vacuum lines that run from inside the cab to the...
Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words.
Another step in the right direction today. While working on getting my courtesy lights to shut off I found a broken/cut ground under the column by my OBD...
More updates!
It starts and runs at the turn of the key! Have to wire in the clutch switch so that it actually needs to be pressed in but I'll settle for the car starting without me having to jump...
You guys ever think you're working on a solution to a problem, finish, attempt to start it up and have it run worse?
Then, go over in your head what the issues could be, start fixing them and find...
You should have done that coating and then found a way to mount it on the roof. Then you could look at it and not cry everytime you drive on it :rofl:
T'was a slow day. Can't get a first drive video if you can't get the thing to run. My aldl cable is also fucked which means I can't tune it myself right now. All I can do is button up my wiring, seal...
Bit the bullet and replaced the FPR. Fired straight up and let it idle for a solid 15 mins. She shoulds healthy, but still want to dial the tune in a bit. Going to finish my permanent connections on...
Another day another problem
Replaced what I thought was a leaky injector and I'm having the same issues. On top of that, the oring and the pintel cap were just gone off the injector when I pulled...
Multiple updates in a day? What the hell is going on.
We have the Aldl Cable sorted out. Who would have thought that the cable itself also had drivers. Updated those and she started scanning right...
Another update,
Been working on getting my OBD port to work and I can't quite get it to read. My aldl cable is good because it'll connect to ALDLDroid on my phone but won't read anything from the...
She runs! It was a long day and a short sleep last night but all the work put into learning the diagrams and pinouts paid off. It's very crude atm, and I had to jump the fuel pump relay with a paper...
Spent the day messing with wires in an attempt to get constant power to the pcm, 12v to one of the injector wires, and power to the fuel pump. We have it priming now on the turn of the key, and our...
We got it to crank!
Been talking with a guy who reworks LS1 harnesses for conversions and we've been working through things. Being that the car was an auto before, we tried bypassing the Neutral...
If this doesn't work out and smell fumes when I finally get the thing started that's the next attempt. I'm sure the 98 made changes to the assembly as well that will prevent me from using the 98...
Just when I think I have things sorted it all goes out the window :shrug:
The evap line I was planning on using wasn't going to work without having a line just vent under the car and I didn't like...
Alright guys we made some progress! The fuel pressure regulator issue is sorted out. I'm going to use the stock EVAP line and connect it to my regulator as the return line. All I have to do is swap...
It's not a matter of pulling what I need, it's a matter of making it so the ls1 bcm and cluster is able to communicate with the 3.4l engine. It's not overly difficult, just time consuming and alot of...
Any progress is good progress.
I've matched up everything on the 3.4l harness with wires on the ls1 with the exception of 2. One is for the "Air Pump Relay" and the other is for "Power to...
It's been a minute, but we're still messing around with this wiring. Who would have thought taking a 95 3.4L engine and dropping it into a 98 trans am ls1 shell would be so difficult :wavey:
Most...
This man is insane.
I suppose if I'm planning on painting a bunch of the interior the satin black to match what I had going into the Camaro, I should probably do ALL the trim right? T-top trim, hatch trim etc? I'm...
Have somewhat of a plan at this point. The drivetrain has all been pulled from the 1995 camaro. I spent most of yesterday gutting basically everything. Working on getting the pedal assembly out as...
