to answer everyones questions

Fuel pressure was set at 42...it wasnt cranked all the way down...we cranked it to 48 to start tuning.

the injectors are 24# SVOs...im not stupid enough to put 19# ones in.

i got a new starter for free...i got one from advance for 30 bucks (teacher's discount) and it comes with a lifetime warranty.

base timing is now set...Jon is on his way...we set it at 8 degrees advance, a stock L98 calls for 6, but we called a chevy dealership and they said set it at 8. so we did.

for anyone that cares...the starter's nose cone was completely blown in half...dont know how it happened...must have had an undetectable crack to begin with.

new problem: my speedo cable sheered itself off (lack of support, i lost the nut that holds it in)...a new one will be here tomorrow.

im gonna be cuttin this close.
