One other dark of night operation is working on a chip for the ECM. I have most of the things done but I need to find the best way to delete EGR. One big revelation was how different the timing tables are relative to what I have been using for my turbocharged engines. Even though they aren’t directly comparable, there is no doubt the turbo program needs serious massaging.

Small items going on but all the major stuff seems to be in order now. I have parts coming tomorrow to assemble a new set of spark plug cables. Not that it is a big deal but I need a new set as a spare, it allows for a custom fit and I am kind of idling until the time comes to actually work on the car. One small surprise was the discovery that the spark plug for the 1995 S/C is one range hotter than for the N/A? I prefer a plain old copper plug for boosted engines and I never put many miles on them. In this case I prefer Autolites and when checking between the LN3 and L67 I noticed the difference so I opted to stay with the standard plug for the LN3, one range cooler. It may only be peculiar to the Autolite copper core plugs but so be it.
