I received my new valve stem seals from another member here. Now I just need to figure out when I can find the time to get them and the lash adjusters changed out.
Pulled out another 20lbs or so.
Pulled out these:

Uh ohh...looks like the weight reduction bug has hit someone...
I know, first it was the mod bug, now I'm thinking more and more about what I can do without in this car lol. Maybe just AWS delete, small battery, hood, and racing seats...that's only 3 more things than what it was a week ago.Quote:

Also just put in new drivers side axle, the old one apparently exploded on my way back from NG (Made a hellacious mess all over my pretty engine bay) as well as new water temp, oil temp, and oil pressure gauges (dash vents too while the dash was out). Started it up for the first time after NG and sounds like a midget in my crankcase with a hammer. I didn't have the pan off so I don't think that's possible, I'm thinking it's a spun bearing :-(
I was looking forward to some trouble free driving for a while mixed with some e85 to see what 9bs on 9:1 cr would do. So now I'm trying to decide what my new set up will be.
Ugh, sorry to hear. Fingers are crossed here.

Did some tuning on AEM. Idle is damn good. Trimmed rear bank to even out o2s. Gave it a lot more timing control at idle to hold idle steady instead of relying too much on IAC. Sometimes fueling is off depending on intake/underhood temps so still need to figure out how to tackle that, but it still holds idle pretty steady.
Also did a 3rd gear knock cal run to 7400rpm. Little cleanup to do on fueling and then will try +1,-3 on cam gears (which will then throw off my fuel map again:))
Chasing some wild bank to bank fluctuations in vac at 14-1700 (rear way lean, front good) 2500-2800 (rear way lean, front good) and 3400-3700 rpms (front lean, rear good). Added a bunch of timing and it pulls much cleaner, but still have the same swings.
