Going to leave the L98 stock or mod it as well?

I do not support this movement lol.

Best wishes for Japan or wherever you go!

Literally just came across this thread read it in one sitting from the start, really got into it only to be shocked when I got to the ending. Was like a watching a M Night Shyamalan film ?.

Great build thanks for the resource. Those enkei wheels are my favourite and have always wanted to see a set on a 240. Any chance of some details of wheel size, offset and fitment? Assuming you kept spacers with 114.3 x 5 stud pattern for front hubs with explorer diff rear?

M Night Shyamalan film hahaa. The RPF1's are 5x114.3 17x8.5 +30. No spacers front or rear. The front has billet steel 5x114.3 hubs and the rear is the slightly wider track of the Explorer diff. With those two combined the +30 8.5" wheels fit front and rear and clear everything except front guard liners need a trim depending on how low you go. Cheers

I aquired this 1990 244 dl.

Has an 02 lm7 with summit cam 226/238 duration .600 lift 113lsa.

Pac 1219 springs and brt pushrods and trunion.

Rebuilt 706 heads.

Has tbss intake and snake eater 92mm tb.

Msd coils and long tube headers.

A z32 tt 5pds trans with mecloud 6 puck.

Ford 8.8 rear with 3.73 and mini spool with custom driveshaft.

Full custom 3" dual SS to 3.5" outlet black widow exhaust.

Summit radiator with spal fan.

Was dyno tuned to 390whp and 395wtq on hptuners.

However the cold start is blah and gets a p0300 I believe is from cam as the misfire count is equal on all cylinders and rythmic.

Along with a 99mph governor which I certainly can't run 12s with lol.

The mvpi2 is like $400 +$100 GM credits.

But as it was originally tuned with hptuners it makes the most sense.

I believe I'm at least capable of adjusting misfire detection and removing governor.

I've used tunerpro which is much more crude.

Mostly just setting vvt load points and 2 step.

Your build is stunning and would love to make this that clean someday.

My first issue is like to address is the iat are very high with open filter.

Would you consider making me a heat shield from your template and I'd pay for your time?

My sheet metal skills are lacking.
