Sounds top end in the video as Immortality said pull a rocker cover for starters or see a third shop.

Easiest and my favorite way of removing the top bolts on the bell housing is to pull the inlet manifold. 10 minute job and saves a lot of grief you can see the bolts. Just need the tool to remove the fuel line clip, few bucks at supercheap.

Only a guess but it may even be a broken timing chain tensioner/guide, sounds like its rubbing on the chain when it gets some whip after being revved, they are prone to fail on the gen 4 engines and an LS2 style dog bone is the best fix. You will be in there anyway if you DOD delete.

I'm running the FPM 1500hp pumps so fpcm is bypassed and max pressure all the time, try not to run low fuel to avoid the heat. Have HP 2bar OS and use E85 50% of the time, have a target lambda of .78 at wot. Haven't had any fuelling issues at all to be honest except for a longer cranking time...

I'm running Deatschwerks 88lb/hr which is just over 900cc and see duty cycles of around 85% at 6800rpm on E85, thinking some 1200's might go on the shopping list. Ignore the KR it randomly shows up like that especially when dealing with axle tramp.

On a hot start I think I have way too much fuel pressure in the rail and have injectors struggling to open, you know KPM fuel pumps set up

Injectors not closing because of demanded fuel 293% duty cycle. Fuel pressure dropping because injectors wide open?

Yeah that's what comes with a Harrop kit but could be better, I routed mine behind the ABS bracket and put some sleeve around it, the yanks have a nice looking option too. Not sure how it transfers over to right hand drive though...

I have the MPVI2 and use a usb-c cable connected to my laptop. The software is a free download from their website, download and install it, read the tune file from your car, save this and dont lose it, you can modify it and play with any settings you want then save as to save it with a new name...

Never used EFI Live only HP Tuners, It's currently selling for $795 MPVI3. Credits are $50USD each and will need 2 to tune.

Pull the starter motor off and check all the torque convertor bolts while you are down there.

Did my own fix using a pack of foldback clips from office works, think I used 3 per seat, just clip them on once the base trim is in place straight over the top of the plastic locator strip then remove the handles. Havent got pics and hard to see once the seat is refitted (removed seats from car...

The 1 7/8 headers is what caught my attention, the net says boost only sized pipes, I run them and actually mine is all XF!

Should be a minimum 30kw+ at the wheels gain, but I will say you have probably gone and upset half of the members of this forum with your choice in exhaust size.

Manual trans? What fuel system are you running? Cheers

5W-40 is a great choice and worth a look, I always run this grade.

I tend to swap between 98 and 85 so often that there is nearly always some percentage of E85 showing, gotta love that flex fuel sensor, old fuel is never great for power but 8 degrees is fairly low. Max boost for me is around the mid 13's so that extra boost you are making certainly heats up...

Chuck in a few litres of E85 and see if it reduces some of that knock

217.9 at my local today, I run it fairly often just to keep some content in the tank because I too love that smell. I would not bother running E85 if n/a unless there was a lot more than stock compression involved.

2 x holley carbs on a stock stroke 308, what size carbs? vacuum secondaries?

I've done this a couple of times as well and as Pollushon mentions it's just a have a go type job and not overly complex. The firewall grommet does need a little work and resealing once done, both times I have done this are due to turbo installs otherwise probably wouldn't have bothered

Ha, yes that is my quickest pass yet, 10.67 @135mph! was pretty happy with the trans tuning and feel it's heading in the right direction so a few more tweaks to the shift rpm's back out for another run and...........BANG.....that is what happens when you get some axle tramp on a fairly sticky...

If the codes read are meant to be shown as the following it makes sense, as mentioned a better scan tool maybe needed P0230 Fuel Pump Primary Circuit P069E Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Light

Running a full after market exhaust will usually mean that high flow cats have been installed. This will render both banks rear O2 sensors (sensor 2) useless as they will be constantly reading outside of efficiency range, they need to be turned off in the tune as they are not there to affect the...

Fitted a Repco one two days ago, $136 and all I could find on short notice. It works.

Still running factory exhaust manifolds?

If you do decide to get back out there chasing a 10, take spare driveshafts with you.............

Probably need one from a Middle East variant

Inside the trans is this module that indicates what position the selector is in, would probably be it. Trans pan and filter off but easy to get to.

Basics all good? I would check voltage with a multimeter and try supplying 12v directly to the cluster back lights, check that you have a good earth too

Remove the exhaust, this is a no brainer. Have done a few and this is pretty much step 1.

Install the bolt with a heap of sealant on the threads, it is common to break through when grinding down the bolt boss for clearance

No-one here removed a steering wheel or changed out a clock spring? Not rocket science people. Does the car drive straight after the wheel alignment, did it drive straight before? Has the steering wheel ever been off in the cars 20 plus year life?

Even easier. Park car with wheels facing perfectly straight, remove steering wheel then refit steering wheel but here's the trick, fit it exactly straight. Done

Something like this?

Took mine to The Bend for the first street drags, show of hands for those that hate their 6L80 transmissions..........

Heavy diesel will get you into the mines if that's what you want, definitely where the money is for a mechanic, there are a few courses/tickets beginning to appear in regard to electric vehicles too. Starting to see some underground electric jumbo's, LV's and normets roll in over the last few...
