John-

I'll loan you "Jett Lag" sometime, my '85 S2. It barbecues f-birds and crud-maros on a regular basis...and even proved that a Grand National isn't so grand one evening.

[I beat the hell out of that guy!!]

That is, when I get the hi-throttle miss to stop!

Normy!

Cool

Max,
Part of the problem with that 2 in 2 out is size I would rather use the 18" Flowmaster to smooth out the sound and add a little more backpressure though I wonder how much unburned fuel will be detonating in the Cat and muffler when I back off the go pedal. However, when we rigged the 18" up the pipe had to go in the wrong side and out the wrong side as well. Not to mention that because of the size it had to hang low, UGLY low. I'll check it out in any case.
Thanks for the idea. I'd like to get Pattycakes sounding reasonable before sHARKANSAs.
If I get the time I need to move all of the lines and wiring from the pass. side tunnel -inboard- and shield them prior to setting up for the dual installation. On a side note: top end power has increased substantially (SOP sensor) while low end and mid range has suffered a little. More apparent when doing 50mph 2nd gear roll ons.
SuperTrapp and slugs may be in my future.
Norm,
I am impressed oh winged one! Alas,
I just don't have the oomph with my USA 4.5L perhaps with a Euro engine. I can soundly thrash most of the GM & FOMOCO products but those LS-1, auto's hand it to me on a plate. Reality can be such a bummer. You don't have a couple of old JATO bottles laying around do you?
Jet Lag sounds like a trip. Enjoy!
John S. & Pattycakes
P.S. Sounds like a basic top end fuel starvation miss... is there a way to map around it?
