It's purtty!!!

So I have a question since I only really know the basic knowledge for the ls blocks, can you explain for me what its for if you don't mind Mike? I understand its an efi for ls, but what's the details of it.

a simple to hook up , clean system with about 25% of the wiring that would be on a factory harness re-work and built in controller for all the adjustments

[bohmankid]

Very very cool. I've been waiting for that as well. They're not bad for the price either.

[NewType72]

Wow is there anything you can't get set up Mike? Awesome package from MSD

LOL....yes there are several things still not covered !

[watahyahknow]

like the electric controll for the transmission if you have to buy an aftermarket controller for that too it can still become pricey unles you have a mecanical trans

[67cheby]

it does control the transmission and dual electric fans

[67cheby]

I stand corrected......it does not control the transmission !

[67cheby]

maybe this would be an option ? http://www.painlesswiring.com/webcat...rchField=66501

[BigDaddyV]

Thats a really nice setup,... but way outta my price range.

[watahyahknow]

you might need to read up a little on the new injection setup before buying a transcontroller , from wat i can remember you need some leads of the injection setup hooked up to the trans computer to have it work propperly
think it was gaspedal positioning sensor enginevacuum? and rpm might allso need some engine temperature reading
im suprized msd doesnt make a add on for that , then again they might allready be working on that

[67cheby]

they are working on it but said it would be 2014 before it was ready !

[watahyahknow]

that might still be on time then ....... eh sema was next year wasnt it ?

I hope I don't interrupt the well-justified Christmas euphoria (I'm envious)---but I thought of you when I saw the thread below. Since you have become a framery practitioner, and a Cadillac owner; you gotta dig this 57 Eldog frame from the Roadster Shop

WOW...that is COOL !

[jlsanborn]

No joke! I bookmarked that and will be checkin in. That dude has a sweet shop and some mad skills. Prolly a buck or two too! Did you see that sick carpet/fur crap he's layin down and the dude sayin he wanted to roll around naked on it!? OMG! How bout them wheels - sheesh!! Mike, thread your Cad on 67-72! Losh's Luscious Caddy - Restomod and the ultimate money pit!

Sweet score on the MSD stuff Mike! We'll be interested in how you deal with the trans deal. Nothing wrong with a good old TH400 neitha!

[watahyahknow]

wow heavy metal pornografi it was about wat i thought about the ls engine with turbos and the custom chassis , i have to agree with some of the other people on that forum , thats some big bucks being poored into that car

[jkeating1]

I've read several reviews and opinions of stand-alone E transmission controllers from members on this forum. One good thing, ya got more room in a Jimmy for controller boxes than in a C truck!

Not that stand out in my mind. I just remember a good referral on the TCI. The other ones are names I'm not familiar with. Plus, these things are kind of a moving target, as they evolve as time passes.

[watahyahknow]

the compushift one is about the best in the time i was investigating options to run a 4L80E
they allso have an option for flapper pedals on the steering for up and downshifting like they have on porsches and other high end cars was just checking real quick and their price is still close to that of a small second hand car

i have to say there been a few years past since and i bet there a lot more controllers available now

nnnnnn vvvvvvvvv.................

[jkeating1]

I think I am building a car vicariously through you! I keep seeing these cool things I want in "my" hot rod. How 'bout an 8.9 liter V12 LS engine!:

You wouldn't have to shorten the 6 cyl valve covers---I think that justifies it, huh?
