ok so heres my update the good bad and the ugly
not too many pics but here we go
finally got around to geeting the intake pipe made

a week ago we were finishing up the wiring for the coolant relay switch and accidentally shorted something out and fried the relay box.
got a new one ordered and luckily nothing else was toast other than the box.
coolant fans now come on and off on their own.
finally the tach was shipped to me.

didnt finish installing this tonight because we still need to run signal to the coolant gauge to get that to work and find the wire for the tach signal which is the pink wire on the ls6 harness i believe.
i sent my shifter back because it was not shifting in any forward gears.
sikky told me that when they recieved it it worked fine on their shopn vehicle which has a gto t56.
i have a ls1 camaro t56 personally i think there is more differences in these transmissions than just the shift linkage piece.
after they sent me back the shifter i reinstalled it, it would stay in 1st gear about 30% of the time it would not stay in 3-5 but R about 50% of the time. i am going to remove it again and attempt at modifiing it to get it to work properly
worst case i screw up a shifter that doesnt work and i have to order another junk shifter.
i did drive her today and she gets in in 1st and 2nd gears
the IAC hasnt learned properly yet and from time to time it would just off after throttle.
finally got all the heat wrap real hot and it stopped smoking

should be done with the finished product soon!
