So trying to fire up the 28 roadster .    I have a plane jane '88 305 and T5 transmission from a v8 iroc/ trans am

brand new 153 tooth flywheel and clutch.

the new starter I bought barely cranks the motor, I have a good 1000amp battery WITH a  200 amp jump pack...

The starter sounds tired as hell like it could be rubbing on something slowing it down,  no matter how much or little i shim , same thing , will only crank the motor with the plugs out and pretty slow at that .   It  Will NOT crank with the plugs in... thats how weak the starter is... brought it back to napa got a replacement... still same problem.    I DO NOT have the bellhousing spacer separator plate between the motor and transmission... is that my problem??

Looks like the guys over at the GearHead EFI Forum have developed/written a working program to flash the LS (411) pcm. The LS engine conversions are taking over the street performance market, altering the pcm code to eliminate for example anti-theft, evap, change VIN etc requires expensive hardware and "credits...(appears this is about to change).  FYI They have been able to change the VIN previously.

Here is a video of a LS Droid flash:

Here is the full GearHead link related to this project:

Hopefully this latest development will lead to a user friendly & less expensive flashing process in the very near future.

Hi I am trying to figure out if the last 6" of the rolled edge on the front fender is supposed to be flat or should it continue to follow the same contour as the rest of the fender.Both fenders are the same and am having one heck of a time straightening it out.Pictures attached.Thanks
