Not bad at all. To the tires too, even more impressive. Reading that, I may be a little low on my guess.
(Of course I would be happy if my truck put 3 digits on the dyno pull. :haha:)

Put me down for north of 300 RWHP and north of 335 RWTQ. Been talking a lot with Tommy Higgins. He is a local Mustang tuner who has do a lot of work on and tuned my 95 Mustang GT 347. He said these LS motors wake up with a few minor tweeks to the ECM. He will be tuning my 6.0L and he thinks north of 350 RWHP.

wow... thats alot buddy. a stock ls2/6speed only puts down 340-350rwhp. i hope we see those kind of #'s. but i'm thinking Gerald is probably in the ball park. Bob should start a poll with the winner getting free shipping!:haha:

Yea I thought he was high too. But he said that deleting the emissions from the ECM and no CATS was good for an easy 45 RWHP

I know... I know, I hate to set my sights to high and be disappointed. But I have no doubt that it will be a world of difference over my 305 2bbl :metal:

questions for the gods!!!!!! I mean you guys.... where did you hook up the brake booster vacuum line to? I see a quick disconnect nipple like opening on the rear of the intake ?thanks...

glock35ipsc 01-27-2010 10:54 PM

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info
 
Yup, that's where it goes. If yours is plugged you can get a nipple from the stealership or a bone yard. I don't have a part number handy though.

I will be very happy with anything over ~ 260.

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info

man I am redoing my own harness I could safely say I am about 98% DONE. it wasnt that hard,,, just need to know so of you guys are using stand alone harness, are you guy running the plug to the sensor right on top of the throttle body, I think it has to do with the eva/ emissions stuff?,

glock35ipsc 01-28-2010 12:43 AM

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info
 
This one?

If so, yes, EVAP solenoid. Nope, not needed. I just used a vacuum cap on mine. Be sure to tell whoever does your PCM to delete.

Now, if it's actually on your TB, we'll need to see a pic to be sure.
