ummm... not sure if it matters to you or not but i think the throttle body is backwards. not knocking whatsoever. just an observation. btw. congratulations. you've accomplished quite a feat of creativity. more pics as it progresses please. and what are you talking about changing from 4 cylinder to 6 cylinder?

The throttle body is upside down because there was literally no other position to mount it. If it were cable operated then it would really have sucked! The DBW seems to be dead on but i can't REALLY judge that yet being i still haven't driven it .
Thanks, I'm beyond stoked to go spank this car, but i realize i need to take my time and get it right. STILL WAITING on exhaust.
For the tach, LSX engines have a 4 cylinder tach output from the factory. In hptuners was simple as changing a cell number.

Looking a little more tidy. Needs a serious power washing
Used a 99 Bonneville pcm box with the mounting legs cut off, mounted to a bent sheet of metal. It's still humping the alternator but better than before.
Only had to move ONE pin in the obd port, the green/ black striped wire. Ls engine talks over one serial wire.

Thanks my exhaust guy came through. It's no fancy mandrel bent system but the bends look fine to me. Full 2.5 inch manifold to muffler. I chose 2.5 to try and "futureproof" for whatever larger engine ends up going in later. I believe the best bang for buck later will be an entire engine swap over a cam or engine work. But hey, maybe I'll change my mind.
