Hybrid, that sucks on the wiring harnesses maker.
Do you mind sharing the company name so we can stray clear of them? In case you want to send it via PM (or not send it at all), I understand

Better luck with the local company!

 

Hey guys I'm back.

I've been super busy this summer to say the least. I plan to get this updated to catch everyone up on my progress.

I did get a new awesome harness supplier. Howell EFI. Delivery took 10 days. Really know their stuff. They have all other components you might need in addition to the harness like, ecu, dbw gas pedal, maf, etc.

My previous supplier was Jordan Innovations. I think they may be good at what they do however I would recommend to stay away from them for a custom harness.

Also have the drive shaft solved for very reasonable price by a great local supplier. CCI. I have a 4 inch aluminum shafts with internal slip Spicer u joints and 1 inch balanced aluminum adapter plate for under $800...... the proof there will be how it performs .... updates coming.

I will post more later and pics of progress.

I have a teaser vid posted here

More to come.......appointment scheduled with exhaust guy for wed next week......any recommendations for exhaust setup?

 

Why didn't you use the FR driveshaft? Wouldn't fit the LS3 tranny?

 

Yeah. When I started this project it was the first LS3 with TR6060 which has a flange not a slip yolk that FR had done. Some guys had converted TR6060 flange to a slip yolk, but I did not want to go that route. Seemed like too much hassle and this transmission will be GM's go to transmission for years to come. Anyway the guys at FR knew people were having design issues with their shafts at that time. I knew it would be months before I needed a drive shaft. Todd discounted his kit price and we stayed in touch frequently. Then I heard from a hotrod friend about CCI and I went and met them. 10 miles from my house. I am an engineer and reviewed the problems Todd described with CCI and they were convinced that the issue is not having compliance in the system, like a slip fit or CV joints. After discussing the options we decided to go 4" aluminum 1 piece shaft with u joints plus internal slip fit. I think I paid $780 out the door. I guess the proof is in the testing. These guys have been doing this for a long time and make shafts for Nascar teams.....seem to have respect in gear head industry here in michigan.

I'll keep you guys updated, but I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. I told them to expect some more calls for this type of setup. It is a father son operation. Mike and jamie. ccidriveline.com

 

So now I don't have headlights turn signal or running lights. Brake lights work...windows and sunroof work....body harness is powered.

Any ideas where to start diagnosing this? Could it be a ground issue? How/where would I look or test this idea?

 

First day at test drives.

Another short run: http://youtu.be/mrvbLkg8cqs

I found the electrical issue. Connector not completely docked at clockspring

 

I am going to custom exhaust shop tonight.
Hoping to do:
3 inch true dual
Stainless works turbo chambered
Hi Flow cats probably flowmaster
Hope to use original exhaust tips at factory location

With any luck I'll have it back for the weekend and be able to go to tuner next week

I'll post vid links as it goes

 

Always love engine swaps.... A friend of mine is just finishing a 911/LS project.

 

nice. Post some pics of that when it's done

 

For sure... He'll have it back when his guy finishes a last little bit of fabrication - maybe next week.

Problem is that the fab guy has been saying that for 3 months...!

 

Lol don't you love that?

 

Yeah - Glad it's not my car & money hearing that!
