Yes, Eric can do that ...my guess is that he can get it on the money with the first  set of files ;)  

He definitely knows his shit when it comes to tuning these cars

Sylvan, how did your installation of the fans go?  How did you wire them in?

Well, this is kind of a running list of stuff that the car will have, it's been nearly a ten year project, and been put on the back burner since we started the biz.  Also the engine is going into an 84 cutlass.

gt67 turbo
FMIC
THDP
208/208 cam
propane inj
upgraded inj
JC progessive timing chip for the street
Maf Translater/ 3" maf
3200 stall
and some minor this and that

Poston headers
Poston downpipe (total crap!)
Big mouth intake
Neal Steward chip
Don Wang tranny (Altos, machined drums, etc)
Pat's 12" 2800 stall
Walbro 340 hotwired
Accufab regulator
Kenne Bell duals
Gutted kitty
some other shit I can't remember
Grand Prix braces
Pioneer deck, amp, sub

I got a few sets of 8445 heads in my garage I'll get round to cutting one day, a spare block, an assload of rods, a front mount that needs piping, gauges I never put in, 40# injectors I never used. I want to build a 4.1, just need a crank so I don't have any down time, daily driver.

Got airbags in there too and a Dutt neck I never used.

It's big. The biggest one here. You know what else? It's got a lot of range. You know what I mean by range, don't you? I mean it can stay up for a long time. A very long time. And it's built firm and solid. Because it has to be. Because of its tremendous forward thrust. And when this baby delivers its payload... devastating.

Mines only seen a few mods. The suspension has: Hotchkis rear upper and
lower arms w/ braces, 3" pinion snubber, GNX style seat braces, and front
polyurethane control arm bushings. The engine currently has 170k with an
8445 head on one side and a 6293 on the other. (the car came that way
 when I bought it) SBC valve springs, RJC plate, 30# inj, Thrasher 92 chip,
Poston's HP fuel pump with hot wire, Dutt neck, K&N air filter, Martone FPR,
S-10 wheel cyls, and Flowmaster exh. The transmission has an Art Carr
shift kit, Fairbanks billet servo, hardened input shaft, custom lockup TC,
and various HD internals. P245 60 R15 street tires = 13.57 @ 99.49mph
All other parts are stock

I'm still building my new combo:
6190 block studded with front 3 caps billet.
Ported 8445 heads with 1.775 intake valves
Precision TE-44 turbo
underdrive pulleys
Accel (Magnavox) coil pack
Silicone hoses
More parts to follow, as I buy them. Only if Gordy hasn't hoarded them all at
that time. :smt071

My cat's intact (that sounds funny), but the exhaust system is basically everything that's wrong with monkeys operating pipe benders. Worst work I;ve ever seen. Good thinkg I didn't pay for it. I would be pissed.

I will replace the cat w/a test pie, no emissions testing here in FLorida.
