I took all the accessories off my LT1 in order to re-do the belt system and turn the intake around. Now I'm putting it back together. I tried to anodize the intake manifold, but it was just too big and my setup can't anodize it well enough to take dye. It kept coming out purple, er, I mean aubergine. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) I gave up and just painted it black.
I'll start with the before pic: Attached image(s) |

Supposedly the LT1 has no rev limiter but has a speed limiter. The LT1 will run with no VSS, but I'm told it will run rough going down to idle and may die, and won't accelerate at its best without it. I don't think it would be happy with a continuous frequency. It's also pre-OBDII, so it's not quite standardized. In the grand scheme of things, adding a toothed wheel is no big deal, especially if I can machine it into an adapter I need anyways (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)
