Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
really like the bed cover and glad the running problems figured out. double check your seal at the sending unit. customer had same thing happen in a 95 turned out the oring seal for the sending unit had slipped.

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
This is completely possible as until I installed the bed cover the tank was out in the open

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
Well I was wondering how I was going to be able to afford a better fuel pump since I put nitrous on the truck and then out of nowhere Rodney(Rodsgreen10) calls me like " hey man, if you want this Walbro 450 come get it!" Thanks again brother!!! Now I just need to find some larger injectors and Im set!!

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
Alright people I got more issues. I got the Walbro 450 installed and I think its overpowering the corvette regulator. Im getting 78psi at the rail now! Truck idles fine but the longer I drive it the more its starts missing so Im thinking its getting too much fuel. I didnt have my wideband installed to confirm this but with that much fuel pressure at the rail Im sure its getting too much fuel. Has anyone else had this problem with the big walbro pumps?

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
What you could do is use the Corvette style Filter/regulator and it will cut down the pressure going to the rails.
I'm going to guess that if you keep running it the way it is you will destroy your injectors! and may possibly cause one to "piss fuel" into the cylinder and therefor cause it to blow when ignited and ruin a rod or piston. A friend of mine had a similar issue and destroyed 2 motors because it was "pissing" into the cylinders. Just my 2 cents. Mark...

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
Thank you for that part# but I'm already running the corvette filter/regulator. If I find out I need a new one I'll definitely get that one though cause the last one cost me $35..

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
He is already running a vette filter/regulator in his system. You can see it in the 5th picture in post #225.
He may need to add a regular just before the rail. I would probable remove the vette filter/regulator and put a regulator neat the rail and a return hose from there. We run the 450 pump to a set of stock truck return style rails with the regulator as part of the rail and have not issues with pressure at the rail.

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
another video update. https://youtu.be/MVi3qLSjBnw?list=PL...JHsUAX-dOyZH-i
Until I can get a stable picture hosting site it looks like Im just going to start documenting my progress on my you tube channel. I cant get photobucket to work and my trial is up on image shack. If anyone knows of any free image hosting sites that arent just 30 day trials let me know, otherwise I guess Im finished posting pictures.

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
When I post pics, I just transfer my pics from phone /camera to my computer then upload to the site as I need to. Very simple and free!

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
what site are you referring to? Because this site wont let me upload pics to my thread, it works by links only.

Re: Project "Steppin Wolf" LS swap
This site and several others I belong to all have the same process.
Start by going to the bottom of the (post reply) box click on (go advanced)Then scroll down to the box (manage attachments) and click on that, another box will open this is where you (choose file) that will bring up your files on your PC, select your pic and click on (upload) it is faster going one pic at a time. Hope this helps, if you have any issues just PM me and I'll help you out. Mark...
