Re: New RPM Motor Pics - It's Coming Together
A friend of mine uses a small bottle of propane with a little hose attached. He sprays it
anywhere a vacuum leak might be with the engine running and you can plainly
hear the engine change.....but I would guess the carb cleaner would/does the same????

:1010: Your taste in wheels is exceptional IMO. Wasn't sure how'd they turn out but DAMMNNNNN! Here's a pic of your oldies on my truck you asked about.
A couple weeks ago I had some business w/ dave outta san ramon and he used to have a sy (he painted his truck red). Dave recognized your old rims from a meet way back and thought I was you (happens more than you'd think actually). I told him to look under the hood so he knew for sure I was really me. :lol: Nice work!

It's a stock throttle body that was ported out to 52mm and rebuilt with new bushings by a forum member. I sprayed every possible area at the top of the motor with carb cleaner this afternoon and there is no vacuum leak. Must be either something in the chip or another bad IAC. Will try a few more things before I just order a new IAC.

Re: New RPM Motor Pics - It's Coming Together
I drove the Sy to work all week and it's running better every day
Nolan is helping me dial it in based on the DM logs I send him. The high idle and IAC count issue was fixed by adjusting the throttle stop (allen screw under metal cap). The motor just purrs now, I can't wait to uncork it. I've taken it up to 13.9psi and that's as high as it's going for a few thousand miles. I plan to break it in properly before switching to 100, turning on the meth spray, and cranking up the boost. The biggest kick is opening up the QTP exhaust cutout. Makes it sound like a big block and the turbo whine is super loud. There's plenty of tuning ahead, but it just feels so good to have the truck finished and back on the road.
