It is. From what I've heard he's a cool guy, and great with LS. But he (according to the owner) only tuned it in sd which stops before 7k, among some other issues.

My tuner, that I have used over the years, had never tuned a cobalt, but I am very happy with it. He builds some wicked cars.

to bad we don't have an oil pressure light and they forgot to tell you to remove the plugs so you don't load the rods with no oil pressure its a bad way to do it

And i would have a nice little first start up vid for you guys, but....

It wouldnt fire

So we rotated the crank by hand until we were within a ****hair of tdc for the intake (checked by feeling through the sparkplug hole that the valve was open?)

And set the cps to like the photo in stageds how to thread. I feel like i should have had it this way from the get-go, but we didnt do it

Reinstalled..

Still no fireup. Pulled these codes:

They are mostly throttle body high and low voltage codes.

Dont know how we could have messed that up except we had to lengthen the WOTBOX wires that tapped into the TB.

Otherwise, the car cranked very healthy sounding. Getting back to in a la manăna.

Put a compression tester on cylinder 4 and when it starts building pressure then find tdc of that stroke. I'll bet it's that sensor
