One of the nicest looking late model Monaros I have seen, period.  Wheels and colour suit it perfectly.

So took the Monaro for a drive this afternoon to leppys place

 

30 mins later we had the OTR in then hooked up my efi live and he has done a heap of ls1 so just been a OTR and exhaust extractor set up its pretty basic

 

pulled up his ls1 tune checked the injector scaling, speed sensors and few other things where correct and showed me the differences in fuel VE tables and spark maps from factory to mafless tune, set thermos on kick in and turn off 5 degrees cooler then factory and then  slapped it in and went  for a drive and straight up its bang on perfect, says mid-low 8L to 100km we know it’s goin to have between 235-240 rwkw and drives starts runs exactly like stock

Dam fuel pump started to play up so I got a walbro gss342 pump

 

that was great fun fitting it into factory basket

anyway it’s all done and back together

 

was a little bit tricky but luckily I pulled out my best wand and managed to get it done
