Yup. Lumia 800. Sort of germane to the thread...

Funny thing. My father-in-law just linked me to this thread: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=352321 And this quote caught my eye: If you use in tank pumps you will have to get a FI tank. The fuel injected tanks have baffels in them to control fuel slosh so the pump will not suck ...

This is another area where the Maxima ECU strategy seems more "finicky" than what I am used to on GM. I think I need to perform this, because I think the hot neutral idle speed is supposed to be like 625rpm and most of the time, it's higher than that (every once in a while it goes to 625 a...

What about the gauge cluster? The '8051 runs the cluster and that's beneficial as you can easily calibrate the speedo in software.

Optimistic thought: maybe the annoying sound at WOT will prevent me from using WOT as much. Last two tanks have been less than 25mpg due to lots of idling and WOT.

He can probably just swap the pump from the Caprice over to the Monte.

EDIT: Eh, it's carbed so I guess the fuel sender would need replacement (4.3L V6 TBI sender perhaps?) and a return fuel line run.

In short, it's a combination of being traction limited in first (so diminishing returns) plus elevated cruise RPMs. Stock tire size is 215/65-15. If you're going to run something like a BFG Radial T/A in that size, those tires will be smoke through all of first gear. Which is slower, not faster. Usi...

3.73 is arguably too much gear for a stock cammed LT1, though. Think of how your Caprice has no traction with 3.08s in a 2-ton car.

Solution: needs more cam. Eventually.

CRI of the GE reveal CFL bulbs: 70 CRI of the regular 2700K GE CFL bulbs: 82 70 is terrible. A lower number means there are more valleys across the color spectrum. If the lamp is not producing the wavelength, it can't reflect to your eyes. Halogen is basically 100. Note that white point is largely j...

Yeah that's a step up from just repairing broken stuff. They're creating things from scratch.
