    Oh to be 22 again, if for nothing else but to make the same mistakes all over again and enjoy doing it.
    LOL...I hadn't considered the age factor....

    O-T, I know, BUT...I'd settle for being 30something again.
    My twennyz would prolly kill me the second time around.

    I think the more dangerous thing for me personally would be doing it all over again with the knowledge that it turned out okay anyway - something tells me I'd be tempted to push the envelope even farther!

    Haha, my first project was a 2010 ram r/t on spray (will never own a Honda. ..well maybe the diesel civic would be cool), I decided to go back to school and sold it in the process I got my hands on the amazing vx. However if memory serves I thought I saw 2 cables on the throttle body, like I said ill look when I get time lol.

    The second one may be for the cruise control.

    Anyone have any ideas on tuning the 4l30e? Looks like the Holley dominator can't for the 30 just the 4l60e. I've read the hummer h3 tcase and transmission bolt up, does anyone know more about clearances? Wiring won't be an issue with the 60

    Do they make 4l60e with the GM metric bell housing bolt pattern? If not, you will also have to get a V8 chevy to along with it

    My understanding was the hummer stuff fit to the metric housing we have. So would the lc3, but I'm worried about making the 4l60e fit in the same place as the 30e, I'm wondering if anyone knows the physical size differences? Or differences in mounting location? Any pictures etc. I've gotten over wiring as the Holley dominator efi will handle the 4l60e and tuning just can't figure out how to tune a factory transmission for a new motor...
