      I bought a small single plane intake to swap out, I'm relatively sure that the dual plane intake is messing with the EFI. Hopefully this will solve the brick wall that it hits at ~5200
      Torker?

        • New intake is night and day different. First start it idles different, and needed more fuel on the top end, but pulls all the way to the shift. It runs cooler as well. I had a hard time getting the holley to control the fans, and Im not sure what I was doing wrong, but I re-did it three or four times and it started working like it should.

          I have an appointment with Texas Track Works tomorrow to get it aligned. Hopefully I can find some time to address a couple of things, like a rattling window, etc.

          Planning to head out sunday morning to Houston to meet the power tour.

                If you find time, let me know and you can swing by and grab them. You can pay me later.

                        Couldn't get my Holley HP box to turn on my fan either. Finally just wired it up to a switch.

                        • Are you guys using a negative output to trigger a relay for your fans?

                          If the dedicated fans output won't work, just put it on a custom switch output.

                          Both my fan speeds seem to working as programmed but I use a custom output for the oil cooler fan and will do the same for the trans cooler fan too.

                            I tried it just about every way I could. That was the only thing I needed to get the car going so I just said "fuck it!".

                              I used the B10 wire (grey with a black stripe IIRC) as the ground trigger to my relays.

                              To make it work, I had to turn on the electric fan function, then set the fan to the corresponding output in the pinout, and then save it, then write it to the ecm. I think.

                                changed the holley tbi to the newer style "terminator" throttle body, so I can put 210lb injectors in.
