before anyones gives me shit for the lambo doors i traded a pair of shitty 307 heads for them and the bolted right on if my angle grinder didnt die and i didnt have to take the fender back and forth to work to make a few adjustments i would of finished in a day.
nothing to crazy done yet has the euro fiberglass bumper sequential taillights, hotchkis lowering springs,put a cold air intake on it.yea its only a 4.3 but i still love her she has a nice sound to her. i also build a box thats ported through the rear arm rest. honestly this car was sapossed to be a basic daily driver but ive fallen in love with these b-bodys. im sure ive missed somethings. its def not something i would have seen myself driving years ago but i love the looks i get in it haha

Welcome aboard! What's ya name guy?
You'll see there are groups of guys here that are totally stock, and then there's the group that modify for performance, and then there's the group that modify EVERYTHING! you'll find there's a place for pretty much everyone here.

Nothing wrong with an L99 engine...'there is at least 2 of them here!

Time for the TB bypass & air pump delete.

My eyes may be bad but...are those fuel rails bolted in?
I dont see the bolts.....that could get bad real fast.
If I'm wrong....nevermind... Smile

i always thought that was sketchy does it happen to be the same bolts that held down the bracket for the original homeplate?
the whole reason i bought the air intake i have was because who ever had the car before me just had the homeplate resting on top of the motor
and now that you say that i just went dug up the folder the kid gave me when i bought it and what do ya know there's a receipt for fuel rails.Im going to guess he was just to lazy to bolt it all back down
This is honestly my first non carb car that wasnt just a woods beater so i never would have noticed haha thanks man

After removing the bracket, you need to replace the 4 8mm bolts. They hold the rails to the intake.

Lonnie, it'll drive/run fine in fair weather. Trust me. I did this for a while in the gold car before I found the problem. Check your ground harness that bolts to the ignition coil mounting stud on the drivers side head. I found that when I poured water on it, the car stopped running. Wouldnt start up until dry. I took it all apart, sanded greased taped everything. I also repaired 2 broken terminals which could have been the problem. Either way I was stumped after I did the opti on it with no luck. Try the cheap fixes first. If you need help text me.
