well after a trip to a different Dyno we found that my stutter and falling flat on its face is due to the torque command, it is pulling 40 degrees of timing out at shift. with only 32 total degrees of timing, well that works good, NOT!!!! so hopefully it will do better now, I will post all of the changes later, gotta go

hello everybody, thought that I would update you all on the next phase of mods. I am currently in deliberations for the eventualality of aquiring two 1958 chevy trucks, with the purpose of building an Ex-Cab out of the pair. I need 4 doors and 2 cabs to do it right. this has been part of the original plan with this truck from the start. If I can wrangle the trucks from the dude, I will start a new discussion for it. It will go onto this LT1 powered 1997 K1500. with all of the creature comforts retrofitted (I hope). concept photo chopped picture here, it is not real good but you get the idea. You can look at the 1953 Willies Pick-up I built a few years back, in my sets as well http://www.flickr.com/photos/tinbender59/8249048042

I am trading the 500 cadu for the 58's ???? Maybe ?????
