Honeycutt did my first forged ls1. Never had a problem with it.

Still planning on running the stock 2bar ECM for big boost?

I don't think that block will hold 2000lbs of boost. Just sayin.

Custom OS for a 3 bar should work

Well then I'll split that bad boy in half and bleed off what I cant use.

I'll likely start on the 2 bar and see if I can keep control of it. If not I'll look more into a computer swap as mine only goes up to 2-Bar.

Its a pretty simple re-pin to step down to the earlier PCM. Only a few pin differences from the green connector to the red.

i think your looking for someone that can do a good job honeing a block and I would be looking for someone that has a torque plate for a LSmota

Honeycutt; Super nice people and they know what they are doing (866-441-9900)Jim or Jimbo.

Foose04 · 08-02-2012, 03:35 PM

Honeycutt it is. I'm still up in the air if I want to assemble it. It's a good chuck of $$$ to make a little error some where and jack up the whole build.

I had Jimbo go through my motor O ring it put it back together and dyno it. When I do go to the dragstrip I lean on it pretty hard and so far so good.
