    Ignition Switch

    Walmart sells 4ga wire in 12/18/24” lengths with ring terminals, adding some extra grounds might be worthwhile.

    Ignition Switch

    Post an update with results. My ignition switch is at least 25yrs old. I was going to put in a new switch just to eliminate it as a possible cause.

    Ignition Switch

    If I may ask, what issue has you replacing the switch? I’m chasing a periodic failure of the fuel pump to prime, and looking at the ignition switch as a possible culprit.

    engine swap question

    If you’re swapping motors might as well go turbo LS. You’ll make more power with less into it than trying to make 700hp with a 4.3. E85 available? Keep the 3.8 and see how far it will go.

    TE44 Part Throttle Surge Solution ???

    It completely eliminated the surge when I ran a Te44. No issue with it coming apart. When you’re done with it use it to slice fruit for adult beverages.

    A little advice please

    Build trans. Build fuel system for e85. Spray alky on top of e85 if you have to. Get that turbo around 25-28psi with zero knock and you might find it exceeds your goals for a fun cruiser. I’d do engine parts last.

    E85 7th injector? Has anybody seen e 85 injected pre turbo?

    Probably easier to just buy 6 injectors sized for your goal with e85.

    Rebuild Part Recommendations

    Define crazy power? I’d go with stock everything except for forged pistons and a small cam upgrade. Is e85 an option? If so raise compression if you don’t intend to push a lot of boost.

    Head gaskets?

    I redid mine in 2017 with stock gm headgaskets, just cleaning up the surfaces before installing. They’ve lived just fine at 30psi with head studs.

    E85 fuel lines?

    I ran e85 using stock lines with the Saginaw fittings removed. Vent & return were switched. Walbro 450 and 80lb injectors. I had no fuel issues running a Te44 for all it was worth. It isn’t the best way, but it can be done.

    Who's ready for some 3800 power?!

    I used to drive a 3800 powered impala fleet car for work. WOT to redline all the time, every day for 100k miles. Couldn’t kill that motor. The 4t60 trans was another story.

    Who's ready for some 3800 power?!

    Thanks for the update. Awesome results. Many videos on YouTube of our Aussie friends squeezing 8-900 hp out of these engines.
