I use a machine on everything I buff. If you are handy with a buffer I use 3M # 6060 with a white foam pad and follow up with some 3m swirl mark remover at 1000rpm with a black foam pad. Follow up...

True that! I thought I killed another motor.

Now all I gotta go is figure out how to keep gas in it. Some slicks wouldn't hurt either.

Runs really good. Hope it stays that way for awhile.

It's fixed!!!! I couldn't believe this is what fixed it.... The TPS was set to .97v and I was told to adjust it to .99v and the SOB runs like a 650hp lightning should!!! I'm goin to go find some bow...

I dumped the oil out of my full oil seperator "catch can" yesterday. And the TPS is new but that doesn't mean it's good. I guess I'll throw another TPS on there. Thanks I really do appreciate the...

Yes! I am getting oil in the plenum all the way up to the filter. I have a "catch can" that was full and prob why the oil made it that far. I emptied it yesterday and cleaned my MAF and still have...

Yap. Sensor is plugged In. The intake is huge so im sure its getting plenty of air.

Also I checked and the TPS voltage at closed throttle is .98

Thanks bro!!

Ya the TPS not consistant with MAF. I realize that the code is just a clue and not necessarily the problem. I'm at a loss. Just spent 15,000$ on the build and don't trust just anyone to need with it....

Update.

Still runs like crap. The AF ratio seems to hang out around 10-11 under a load and misses or detonates or stumbles whatever it's doing it ain't right. Accufab says there is nothing wrong...

I restored a 60 elcamino last year for a guy. Also painted my lightning while the engine was out last year

Sorry I was referring to the plastidip stuff. What is it called?

Good info!! What brand do you prefer?

Holy balls! That's sweet

This is part of my intake. I'll get a pic of the whole thing later. The grey powder coat wasn't doin it for me. So I threw some paint on it.

Lookin for a throttle body! Already have an accufab but its not wkg out for me. Anyone wanna sell/trade a BBK or billet flow? Could use a stock TB for testing If anyone has one laying around. Thanks!...

You should be able to get a mostly used roll of 8 or 12" from the local sign company. It is useless to them after the roll gets low enough. But it's great for custom paint guys they might call it...

Ya my 2011 is a bit wistley around 60mph and I got no clue. I taped off everything but the grille openings and can't find it
Sometimes the foam behind the mirrors or the foam between the fender and...

Sorry bro. You can always get some clear mask film and cut the chrome letters out with an exacto knife and spray the whole thing black. Then peel your mask film off and you now have a perfect match....

Ya I hate that.my lightning badges did that. I would prob start with a black sharpe if there still really small. Duplicolor rattle can flat black. Spray a bit in the cap and use a touch up brush to...

There jackin you around. Period. Make them fix it right. I paint tux black all the time it's easy to match. Tell them to take a about .3-.5 of the green out if there mixing a half pint on PPG Deltron...

Ya it's called trim paint. Matches most factory flat black trim. Several companies make it. SEM, Duplicolor are a couple. ,follow directions on the can. Or look up the tech sheets for proper prep...
