What l figured. But l also only see 1 temp sensor in schemetic. Temp guage works ok, so the switchy one is my problem circuit. Now the fun really starts.

Also brings on high fan 6 seconds after starting

Ive had this same issue VS 6cyl auto ute. Puts up MIL, read codes, 15, but temp guage reads ok, and replaced both temp sensors, all tests ok. Car goes ok, but l believe is slightly richer due to ECU response to fault. Beaten me so far. Thanks daveb for schemetic!

Sounds like head gasket? Did it get hot 4000 kms ago?

All l saw was bad reviews, looks like they stopped trading mid last year.

Forgot to mention Eaton 'Wasp' blower

I did see the irony, lol

Owned this since new, just racked up 20 years. 427000 kms Donk is stock bore LS1 with DSS pistons and Eagle rods. ACL bearings 871250 cam and associated with 500hp CNCed Rod Rainford heads. Put together myself, tested ok so far at 6800 rpm with 12 pound boost. 800 lbft single plate. I shouted it...

Google it like l did, my learned collegue.

Ive found 3rd gear grunt skids with blown LS1 has not surprisingly exceeded what Repco NSA 148 shafts can put up with. Grindey noises and bolts on angles, hard to undo on outers. Whats the alternative to $3600 Pedders? Does anyone know the part number of the fabled bigger 6ltr VZ driveshafts...

Looks like Pollushon got lucky, apparently TLG dodgy as.

Crass people would still describe it as a clint of a job.

From other accounts l've read, this was much easier, and pushed through by hand.

I pulled the loom out of VX LS1 this afternoon. Heres how you position the engine bay fuse box so it goes through firewall. Minimal swearing.

Just means the ends are pinned, have 6 lots of clearance in the crush tubes each end to get off center and vibrate further in.

From what lve read engine fuse box goes through firewall, but only if you swear a lot.

I got had by dodgy prick with 8 sales on ebay. My own fault.

After exhaust off tailshaft out 3 times, l found the inner diameter of the crush tubes were bigger than oem. OEM neat on bolt, these have clearance. Means not pinned, get off centre, vibrate. Not fit for purpose or sale.

OEM work fine before and after

I just had the same thing. Everything looks seated and true. Vibrate on coast down Suspect they are carntz of things, putting OEM back in.

Definately low blinker fluid. Happens all the time.

Well, thinking I'll backpedal on the fat n retarded statement. Added 2 degrees timing, detected knock straight up, and suspect that actually costs you more because it straight up knocks out timing, and learns from it. Stock tune varies AFR from 14ish to 11.3ish :1 over range of about 2500 to...

When I had close look, seems most air comes from 'leakage' around headlight, and from under guard, as opposed to from in engine bay. Looks like Holden actually had a think about that. As soon as car moves, IAT goes to outside air temp. Imagine it'll be going to some-one experienced with dyno for...

Saved my bin file before flashing in new one. Tuning software with a learner, sounds dangerous, eh? ; ) Ambient temp all the time means it's not getting heated up in the engine bay, which I figured renders Cold Air Intake unnecessary as it's not hot, is the same as outside air, and hence CAI...

New Was led to believe stock manifold was not too bad, either. Obviously not as good as extractors, but apparently tune suits. Would appear not. Have got extractors to put on with blower, looked at putting them on, and figured "what a c*nt of a job", going to put them on when stroker goes in...

Think ol mate has picked it with the exhaust manifold. Not sure if the rwhp has to do with the exhaust capacity, would think the flywheel hp are the ones going out the pipe? Tune advertised as stock cam and stock injectors, which apparently the same as HSV. Poor exhaust appears to effect even...

Good point. Just checked, and it joins before diff to 3" and out, no rear muffler. According to pipe flow reference I looked up, 3" good for 340 Hp, which is 255kW, so 'choking' at that. Would have thought 3" should have covered it, but there you go. Was planning full twin 3" for blower, but...

Agree, I'm just playing out of interest, and tune shops pretty thin on the ground out here in Emerald, QLD.

Tune come with LS1 flash tool I just bought, playing with it to get familiar before I put blower on. Reckon there was 285kW HSV options at that time. Had a bit of EFI playing experience, curves on MAP graphs look what I'd expect, but definitely 'doughey' seat of pants, and the stopwatch sez so...

Did a search onsite for this, surprised no hits, so here goes. Put 285kW HSV flash into my VY2 SS ute with airbox mods, cat back 2 1/2 exhaust. Now takes a full second longer to get from 2000 rpm to 5000 rpm in 3rd gear, flat ground. And don't feel the 'surge' in power from about 3800 like it...

Will prolly get flamed for digging this one up, but mine was doing the same 2 cm/ 5 second deal, VS2 SS ute. Turned out to be dirty pin on BCM module connector, behind fuse box, near driver right knee. Can't remember exactly which pin, but you'll see it dirty when you pull out connector. From...

Thinking it measures resistance and capacitance, check the specs out and put the components in, Holden in Gladstone wanted $160 to plug in the computer to reset fault, rogue bastards.

After heaps of trolling through ,US sites, looks like Flash tool bloke is actually a major contributor/developer of the PCMHammer stuff. Still has disclaimers on bricking and not using on your only vehicle. Think I'll go MPVI2 stuff on consideration. Commercial product, with support. Downloaded...

They don't give away much detail on what it can do on their website. $622 aussie peso's for VPVI2 with 2 credits. Only looking at getting mine close, then dyno, when the time comes. Just playing in the mean time, I'm half geek, so it interests me. LS1 flash $390 delivered. I'm surprised no-one...

Yeah, seen that one, but like you said seemed a bit 'beta'. Flash tool looks very similar to the Megasquit stuff I've played with, and cheap enough too. Can log, and will do 2 bar MAP as well. His support seems a bit lacking though, even for a sale. Doesn't bode well for tech support later.

Yeah, comes out at like 6% extra lift, but would increase overlap which should help a bit. Would prolly hurt towing but. Got 'em anyhow, was going to put pipes on n valve springs in and have aplay tuning. Don't imagine stock flash would be too far out. Apparently a couple of known tweaks to...

Ordered and paid topmount blower kit, throttle body, valve springs, tubes, fuel pump, etc already, was playing until I move back to Victoria, and put blown combo together. Not really wanting to tow trailer 2 trips Qld - Vic with huffer. Already own rockers.
