Re: El Caphoon coming soon... Following Bsted with the grave digging but its great to see two other guys with the same vision! I'm still running N/A but these next few months i'll be piecing together a lot of the parts I have.

Re: Turbo 4.3 into 5th Gen 'Camino Awesome to see! I am going for the same exact thing with my El Co. Its a 4.3 TBI with Edelbrock 2114 and Vortec heads for now. What are you planning on tuning with? I am using TunerPro and DynamicEFI EBL Flash. Is it a forged assembly? So many questions! lol

Re: FAST Miami Meet 2015 Is his screen name Harmon? Might be useful to be able to pick a locals brain once in awhile. TampaRacing is still here, over run with Honda's.

Re: FAST Miami Meet 2015 Love the idea of getting together and wrenching. Need to find a group here in Tampa, ole 4.3 needs some help.

Re: Go fast parts lingenfelter head cam intake package and more What are you going to ask for the short block? Forged rods & pistons?

Re: N/A 4.3 Chip/Tune Bigger injectors were coming either way, so now I have an excuse! I'll mess with the distributor a little more tonight and see how she likes it. I was close to saying F it and putting on a carb but it'll only make things harder when I turbo it. The EBL flash that TeeTopZ...

Re: N/A 4.3 Chip/Tune I used the stock injectors, which I'm going to assume is the issue. I knew the heads flowed better, I just didnt think it would starve at idle. I'm going to grab larger injectors and put them in this weekend and see how it runs. I appreciate the help, after looking at...

Re: N/A 4.3 Chip/Tune Stock cam.. It was a completely stock 4.3 TBI. Threw on the 2114 with a TBI adapter and 98 heads. Those were the only changes I made.

Re: N/A 4.3 Chip/Tune The timing is set to 0 but bounces around between 0-4 while it's running. Local shop seems to think its because the EGR delete and new fuel curve.

Re: N/A 4.3 Chip/Tune As far as I can tell it is the stock ECM.. I was surprised to find out my "factory" El Camino had 94 heads on it, meaning it was probably a new motor, but I'm not sure if the ECM was ever replaced. Not sure if there is much of a difference between 87 & 94 TBI ECMs either...

I have recently done the Edelbrock 2114 and 98 Vortec head swap. Everything is back together and the car is running, but just off. Timing is bouncing around, and it sounds as if it's trying to adjust itself. I don't know how I overlooked it before, but I'm convinced the stock computer is the...

This is how I plan for my build to go, and am wantinng suggestions on parts as well as order of upgrades. I currently have a bone stock 87 4.3 TBI N/A and i'm shooting for a turbo monster in the end. To begin with, I picked up a pair of Vortec heads casting no. 12556140 and the Edelbrock 2114...
