LT1 LOW FUEL PRESSURE

[Mike Rolica]

Trust Bruce!  He is totally right.  I agree 100%.  When I did my truck, I
tried to get it to look like it came from the factory with a L98.  I even
spent the time to use the original tac and gauges.  Even the wiring harness
in integrated with the truck's.  I even used the fuse panel and put in
connectors under the correct labels(ie ecm inj1 inj2 ect)

	Well, I can tll you this, I was sent to inspect a door latch that
had been 
	replaced, and the retainer was off (also the wrong one was inside
the door 
	panel) on the back side (was a few  years ago).
	The door had opened while in an accident.  Long story shortened,
took my 
	statement, about the installation.  The Insurance Co. got out of any

	liablity over the door opening since the owner, didn't do the
installation 
	right.
	They covered the accident damage but not the reapair of the door, or
medical..
	  Being an expert witness, is an excellent way to make money, I'll
tell ya.
	Insurance co.s cn be real weenies when they want.
