I love that show. Very informative on a lot of things. Though they do not do a lot with any modern engines which is a shame. The closest they get is a Holley efi set up.
I saw that episode too. They really beat the hell out of those headers and it still Dyno the same.

Inquiring minds want to know. Any thoughts doing a Dyno-run? I will guess-‘guess-estmate’ you are producing 320 hp kevin

Random. Your swap is coming right along. Looks good. Please remind me of your car year and transmission choice. Thanks

I guess we are building the same car. It will be interesting to see the results, the similarities and differences. My guess is that yours gets done first.

We'll see. My wife keeps tasking me as well haha. The biggest things I have left;
Finish wiring - I dove in last night. I figured out where I want to mount the ecu. Now its a matter of mounting it and re running all the wires cleanly.
Fab two engine mounts. I'm using mounts from a later c4 corvette simply because I have a bunch.
Send the MAF mount out to get 3d printed so I can attach it to the intake tube.
Then the ancillary stuff that should take me about a day. (Exhaust, fuel lines, shift cables. Etc).
I have everything, its just a matter of finding the time at this point. Hoping I'll fire it not this weekend but next. Then its rip all the body panels off so I can send to paint.

I mounted my ecm on a bracket on the cradle so it comes out with the cradle when dropped.

I look all the time at the local Pick a Part for these with a manual and never find them. The same goes for the G6. Never see one with a manual ever.
