In the process of sending Data logs with MRS equipment to have can-bus intergration.......to be clear.....this information is for a LS1 with an 05 GM E40 ECU.......E40 ECU of another year are quite different and would require seperate logs to decipher.......And yes this is my thread not Vorshlogs......they as many others refuse to fall into the keyboard expert cross examinations of so called experts on the internet who can easily hide behind a moniker.......I dont own a business nor call myself an expert on car builds or can-bus ......but sharing my build so others who would like to learn or avoid mistakes or know the right contacts to do this as well will have the resources.

I'll be waiting for a full disclosure of the little details and all.
BTW I'm excited for how far you come along, good choices and congratulations on where you're at.

Is the mishimoto radiator adequate or are you looking for a better radiator for your swap?

Right now I'm going to manual brakes. I got the dual circuit master cylinder, fabed up a adapter plate, actuator rod ,and changed the pedal ratio. I removed the abs block retaining the electronics that were attached to the block. Just need to fab up the lines to complete brakes.

Redoing the wire harness in the engine compartment to get more room and clean it up a bit. Next I want to move to cooling components, and then fuel system. I already removed the spot welds for the old mounts on the Cross member and the tunnel. @#$& I need to start a build thread.

Actually I was thinking about what your doing with the brakes......still holding out for the slight chance ABS will ever work......the radiator is a Mishimoto.....right now it seems to be working......I had oil temp issues running it hard.....oil cooler and a good one is a must.

I pulled the ABS fuse immediately after hearing about "ice mode" I will give a review of the brake setup after the swap is done and running. Weather it turns out good or bad I will give a honest review, and what if any adj were made. I may be out that way in October next year if you haven't done it by then so you can feel it in person.

Thanks for the heads up on the oil cooler. I have a Setrab oil cooler sitting at the house now. Time to start designing and fabricating brackets i guess.
