I wonder if the guys @ Mattel that make hot wheels would replicate your beautiful truck. It would be a hot seller for sure. Awesome truck Eric.

I'm so incredibly stoked to be involved in any small part of this truck. I lost my Mother to cancer a few years ago and know how big of a struggle it is on family. I would say the quality of Tootsie is a direct reflection of how important family is to Eric and his Ma. My hat is off to you buddy.

del you are a classy dude sir
:metal:whoa these two super powers together!! hmmmmm can't wait

So do I but it may not happen the truck just needs hood tailgate but there is something going on with the computer I am not getting the low volt signal to the coil so no spark. I am seriously pissed I have been spinning my wheels in the mud for 2 days :fry:

if so just run a diagnostic and post it on their website and a tech will walk you threw the problem they helped my brother on his 72 ls1 camaro and 49 ford f100 with a ls1 their very helpful :metal:

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
I am sorry but I am not sure what you are referring to this is new to me. I have a tunner that came with the blower. I am super lost right now. If it were not for my brother in law I would have burned the wiring harness to the ground already :lol:

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
looked it up know i dont have it. We have a Gm tunner here that removed the vats from the e40 computer He was going to tune the car but he is not around on the week days. he is here on the weekends.

kvann72 10-29-2013 01:04 PM

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
get hptuners you can change vertically everything you want your shift points air to fuel ect.and you can run a scan and send readings to the techs and they can trouble shoot it for you.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
Any idea how much and can you down load it

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
Put a test light on the wire that you have connected to your injectors/pcm/ignition. It should get 12 volts with the key in the run postion AND most importantly while the starter is being engaged!!! I got in a hurry with mine and connected it to a wire that had power with key on but not while the starter engaged.....it will not start this way, :D. I just purchased HPTuners myself. Looks like a big learning curve, but I'm tired of depending on other people for this. I will eventually get mine dyno'd tuned, but hopefully I will be able to do a "safe" tune myself....

Around 500$ comes with software a obd2 connected to a laptop an you just go threw it step by step you can google where to order it from we got ours for summit I believe but shop around for a good deal on it it's worth every Pennie in my book you can get on ls1 tech and read up on it and youtube of people tuning theirs might help too we watched tons of videos and read up on it alot

Did all of this and it is all checked out. I think I have a computer issue

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
Could possibly be that get on ls1tech.com and see if theirs anyone else having that problem and how they fixed it you could start a forum on it and surely someone would chime their 2 cents in on it lol

Rob no there are no codes being thrown. I may pull harness and computer and redo it. I have access to one of the best ls tunners and engine builders on the west coast we are all trying to figure the the truck out. We will figure it out but it just depends on if its before sema. i hate to push the truck into Sema

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
Its gotta be that stupid, ugly, heavy a$$ blower. Get rid of it... My address to follow... I'll handle the shipping :metal:

Anyway, wish I had some insight into the problem. Just being a smart ass, hope you figure it out!! :chevy:
