    Re: Newbie. Need help Just checked the IC flow it is flowing slowly very slowly. I also noticed that the heater hose that runs to the intake under the throttle body isnt connected. Is this good or bad? I'd think it would help cool the intake some? But then if your IC is working well maybe...

    Re: Newbie. Need help Not yet. I guess I'm going to need a datamaster. I just picked up the truck last Saturday. So I'm just now trying to gear up for tuning it. I did fill the tank and it no longer stalled out, so I guess that was my problem. I also dont think my IC pumps is working to well...

    Re: Newbie. Need help I'll fill it up today and see what happens. Also it is "susposed" to have a Walbro 255 LPH fuel pump. So far no engine light at all and the bulb is good. I guess I'll start with the simplest and work my way from there. Thanks for the info

    Re: Newbie. Need help As far as I know the engine is stock. Right under 1/2 tank of gas when this happened. Engine light is not on. Motor idles fine and seems to be really tight. As for boost all I have is the stock gage but is it pegged at +15 when this happened. Also my oil pressure is...

    I just picked up the Sy-clone that was on ebay a few weeks back. I trailered it back and fired her up idle was around 1200. Figured vacuum leak no problem. Found vacum leak, fixed vacum leak.

    What engine to use?

    Re: What engine to use? I dont know. The L35 cam is a little hotter but would it work well with boost? I figure someone makes a mild but hotter than stock cam for the Sy motor. I know Comp cams make a few for the 4.3 but which ones work well under boost. I did a search but didnt come up with...

    What engine to use?

    Re: What engine to use? What about cranks? So my best bet is to have Sy crank turned and L35 rods reconditioned. (Both motors run fine but both have around 150k miles. Also stick with the factory Sy compression ratio? Or can I play with that a little. Like I said I'm totaly clueless when it...

    What engine to use?

    Re: What engine to use? Thanks. What is the difference between the Sy bottom end and the L35? Also who makes a mild but hotter than stock cam for the Sy motor? Or would I be better going with higher ratio rocker arms? This will be my first V6 buil. I have plenty of experience with the Chevy...

    I just bought the S10/Sy-clone that was listed on Ebay. It is a Sy motor/drivetrain in basicaly a 86 S10 4x4 body/frame. I also have a 94 L35 motor. Which would be the best engine for a build? Are the cranks and rods any better in the Sy motor? I know the L35 heads are better than the Sy heads...
