Ordered my 6.0

[BOSS]

Great job. I'd like to see a video of you kickin the ass end sideways down the road with a shit load of smoke.

I'm your huckleberry....


JK don't forget your HD camera man. In fact here's a list of thangs to brang:

HD camera - need a sideways pic with a bunch of white smoke and others
Tools - to fix my gdamn "THIRD" autostart module on my Viper
Stomach - I'm grilling 15-25lbs of meat with a bunch of peeps tomorrow
Hangover Chasers - Because you might need these if you stick around and drink with the BOSS

So the 6.0 saga continues......

In a land, far far away.....there sat a 2001 Supercharged 6.0 cam'd Chevrolet Tahoe, running very very lean on one side of the 6.0













.....and in the WRONG garage.

I wish I could have taken a video. When Justin retune'd JK's truck for the 6.0, he told him that there was some sort of mechanical issue causing the passenger side of the 6.0 to run very lean. The AirFuel mixture sensor is on the driverside of the engine, which is also now running lean 17+. Long story short, Jeff took my truck back to Austin and left his in my garage.

Jeff had actually worked on my truck for a bit, then started to head back to Austin. Apparently less than a mile away from my house it started to idle rough and die.

So back to my garage it went. We took the cats off last night thinking it might be a restrictive cat, no avail. Checked over the entire engine, found a cap inside one of the SC hoses but that didn't fix the issue. Found a wire that was cut/exposed and touching the manifold - no help.

Then I helped wide-eyed and watched Jeff remove the manifold cover and check all the springs on pass side. After reinstalling the manifold gasket, we gave up as it was almost 1am I think and I had done some shots after Jeff pulled away.

So for now, I sea-foamed the tank just to get the lines as clean as they can be right now and started it up a minute at a time for a few tries. Going to look at the plugs and chekc gaps tomorrow night after work.....dead tired today. If Jeff thinks it's safe, I might idle drive it a mile to the local shop to run some diags.

I think he wants to check the bolts on the headers also...BOSS has inherited some work at the direction of the more experienced...and I'm taking calls.

This build is one for the books, up and down...up and down!

Actually mine is tip top engine wise, JK installed the 3rd and final auto start module last night.

Funny thing is, well it's the ONLY funny thing about the entire night....

Before he had pulled away in his the first time, I had started pulling doors, rear hatch, dash panels, door sills, rear panels for my interior mod starting this week...so he drove mine back to Austin with a minimal amount of interior
