I'm back guys. I had some words exchanged with another member on here and things got out of hand and caused me to step way out of character (got me a suspension lol).

Short story is I sold my hci ls3 5g last year, sold my V wagon, sold my 13 srt8 grand Cherokee, 09 Z06, and 2012 evo (yes I had them all at the same time), and leased out my house and bought another house that was 1/2 price of my 1st house. I put a good amt down as my cars were all paid for in full. I then picked up the 6g and a new Tundra platinum 4x4 and here I am today. Mods are coming from leftover change from sell of my cars.

To the build - i ended up buying a adm modded blower from a member on corvette forum who was putting it on his 6g but went with a whipple instead. I have my z06 blower for sale (don't need 2) if anyone is interested. It will need to go to Andy at adm to get modified keep in mind (the guy I bought it from had nothing but great things to say about him btw).

Exhaust is getting modified as I speak to get a snug fit and I should have dyno numbers by Monday. Did I mention Adm performance is amazing btw? Lots of his input and knowledge went into this build through 2nd hand. Will post more Tuesday or Wednesday.

Car went to dyno last Friday and my transmission is shot (very very long story). I had it rebuilt after burning it up (my fault 100%), and either the rebuilder whom I won't name as of yet (who has been dodging my calls since I told him there is an issue) messed something up or I have a hydrolic issue. So I have to handle another new transmission build then attempt to have it tuned. Car is finished btw just untuned with a fuc**d transmission. I'm literally ready to set a match to this damn car.

Turns out my transmission is A-ok. It was a mis aligned shifter assembly (Hurst) that was binding up. We got this figured out and she left the shop for the tuner earlier this afternoon. Finally I can say numbers tomorrow afternoon/evening and hopefully I will be driving her. Can't fkn wait.

Holy crap man. What a story. This is one of the reason I am happy I can and do all of my own work. How did the tune turn out?

Another hiccup yet again (smh). Car is getting trailered back to shop tomorrow due to a high pressure fuel pump issue with the brand new lt4 hpfp. It is in reduced power limp mode and won't run for more than 15 seconds with a rough idle. It is definitely a fuel issue so here we go again. The shop is going to run some test but was almost suggesting me that I might need a new hpfp (1200.00). I seriously doubt this is the case but we will see. I literally picked up another newish pony car today (no I am absolutely not kidding) to hold me over bc I can clearly see nothing with this damn car is going to be easy on me. I'm ready to just put the son of a ***** in the garage throw a cover over it and pretend I never modded this thing. Month number 5 rolls around in 4 days (my bday tomorrow) and still no Camaro after tens of thousands of dollars

Sorry to hear your having so many problems. What happened to the shop that was working on it previously and who is working on it now if you don't mind answering ?

Same shop renegade Motorsports Houston. Great guy, friendly, and definitely no issues trust wise or communication wise. He is just a bit slow and very new to the lt platforms. Day after tomorrow makes 5 months to the day and I am still having issues. As of earlier this afternoon it was being towed back from tuner to the shop to see what is causing the fueling issue. He is assuming a possible splice or wiring issue where he wired in the flex fuel kit, or maybe a ground somewhere.

I bought a used 2015 5.0 yesterday and will just toss exhaust and coilovers and a cai on it and drive that around til my 6g actually runs. This way I have a fun car to drive in the meanwhile. Tired of driving my boring ass lifted Tundra around (although it's a 2016 4x4 Platinum).
