So the exhaust is all back in place, the new fuel pump is also where it belongs. I am the proud owner of the aforementioned Holley Terminator X Max control system. We have also been working on getting the wiper setup to work with the LS. The problem is there is a vent elbow on the driver's rear of ...

Any plans for any performance ...
