Since my engine is 200+ I have to think yours is a bit more. Lots of people run manual timing, I just think having them synced up by a computer will allow for more power. There are ways of cheating the knock sensor for loud valve trains.

I run the stock tbi with a 96 vortec engine and a few other things . No problems with mine. I had brian at tbi chips.com burn a custom chip. After about 3 revisions I had a very usable tune. I dont have vss so sometimes stopping from hi rpm with want to make the motor stall. I just bump the gas if the rpms drop that low.
Holley Sniper...
I’m pretty sure you were totally against Holley a few pages back....
before I get the inevitable correction - I bought the one with timing control (though probably won't use it).... it was actually cheaper then the one without timing control
it works well now, hopefully this itineration will last more then 3k miles
Ha ha ha, heard that one before. 3k miles or until you drive it out of your driveway, which ever comes first.
Yep - I thought about a similar tie-in because that's exactly where my panel crunched. Just wondered how that would affect the already plush ride - having the frame tied to the tub.
@SuperBuickGuy - quick question on your fender flares (since I ripped half of one off last weekend on the trails). I think somewhere I saw you mentioned they're metal Jeep flares. I've read through numerous debates as to whether rigid metal flares will "glance off" blows or whether they will act as damage multipliers by distributing the weight of a hit across the quarter panel and denting the whole thing. Obviously, rubber flares don't have this issue, but also offer little in the way of protection to the quarter panel in the first place. They just won't crack like my fiberglass ones did.
Just curious if you've actually "tested" the metal flares by running them into something, or, for more details in general - ie how they're mounted, reinforced, etc.
