    Converter stall rpm?

    Well, I guess it's time to try a new converter. It's the only thing I haven't changed and I know I should be able to hold more then 4# of boost.

    Converter stall rpm?

    S-10 brake cylinders, soft brake shoes, new drums, bled multiple times. With the powermaster I couldn't even hold 1# of boost. So it's been an improvement with the hydroboost, but shouldn't my rear wheels hold until closer to that 3500rpm stall speed?

    Converter stall rpm?

    In the process of trouble shooting reasons why my hydroboost brake equipped GN will only hold about 4# of boost before the rear tires start spinning. Front brakes hold. This happens about 2750 RPM, and I supposedly have a 3500 rpm stall speed 10" lock-up converter. Is this a problem.

I have seen it get to -11% briefly during light accelerationn 1-3# of boost. Havent pushed any further than...

    fuel pump options

    I went with the Aeromotive 340 and switched the return line to the bigger vent line and made the old return line into the vent. Works great. Of course cleaned the vent line out real good first.

    Replacing fuel pump after XFI install

    Installed XFI back in January and got the idle and basic parameters set up with Cal. Since then I have replaced the Walbro 255 fuel pump with an Aeromotive 340. I ran a bigger return line and have the fuel pressure set, at idle, the same as it was with the 255. I have driven it around a bit...

    Racetronix in-tank fuel pump harness

    Thanks for the reply. So i figured that the purple wire from the fuel level sender needed to be pulled out of the old connector and inserted into the new connector that passes through the bulkhead. I'm still confused about the bottom right (in the picture) black connector. It look like its an...

    Racetronix in-tank fuel pump harness

    Anybody ever put one of these in? There are two ground wires coming out of the fuel pump connector. One has a female spade terminal on it and the other has a male plastic connector on it. Wondering where these connect? Thanks.
