I was wondering why one man would bet on his last ********. So I researched the LS7 for 1 minute and found this...
Yea.... that's the engine I would have chosen...
Lart you may have a pair soon! hang in there buddy!
This has to be fake. Ls is the best thing that ever happened to car world and especially 944. The only thing that one can do do make 944 drivable at all is V8.
Check the fan shroud for air leaks to the radiator. Also the ac condenser should have a shroud behind it direction the air to go thru the radiator. And the temp neddle may be off. I used open cell door jam foam strips for sealing the shrouds, works great. Good to see your not using the LS7 heads with the valve guide issues.
Doug pointed out that I have a significant gap of several inches between the rear of the lower front valence and the front of the radiator.
so air probably isn't taking direct path to cool it. i'll see about closing the gap.

1. car runs real, real seriously good since the visit to the tuner.
2. any lack of power is either only remotely noticeable or not at all with spirited driving.
3. power delivery is just about perfect when you give it a lot of throttle through the low gears.
4. I drive a lot in 5th at 50-65mph, say like, driving on Coast Highway or in heavy traffic on the interstate, etc....
then, when you pop it into 4th, the car launches violently.
5. so, in 6th from 65-80 mph - when you drop into 5th, the car launches really, really good.
redline in 5th is like, 165~170. obviously, the dyno suggests it is going to dog out a bit after 4500 rpm....
still, with everything already so far past awesome, i'm not sure I care.
with the stingy, oem pump is there any upside??
besides less likelihood of driveline issues....
how 'bout less of a chance of fire?
since the fuel supply is on the stingy side, is there any chance this condition will allow for better fuel economy?

so much problems with the LS I decided to LS swap my Camaro
The last thing you want to mess with is your AFR Map. Trust me.
So you are not supposed to alter the A/f ratio? where did you learned all this stuff?, 911 guys are amazing, you need to tell all these 951 fans about your findings, they like to play with their AFR all the time.
