				Since I had the 416 LS3 installed in the car I've been chasing a few problems: 1) a clunk in the steering from a stop. Inner tie rods? the steering feels a little odd, I already replaced the PS pump and drained/refilled fluid with new. Problem still exists. 2) RPMs drop when steering goes to full lock in both directions and if I don't feed it throttle the engine will die (still dies regardless sometimes). Rarely- but also rev matching on down shifts coming to a stop (no steering input) the RPMs dip just below 500rpm and then they come back up to idle..has died a couple times. Or an alternative to low RPM is high RPM idle after to coming to a stop from rev matching down shifts (sometimes without downshifts). It will idle around 1300 then after being stationary for ~3 seconds it drops back to the 800/900 idle. 3) Throttle cable on the NW 96 TB is loose causing a lag in the throttle input, how do I adjust this? Any help or input? |

				Closest to local I have is Formato (I've heard a lot of mixed reviews) and Vengeance..which is a few hour drive..and in reality I'd have to tow it, leave it, then pick it up a week later to tow back. I have HP Tuners, needed it when I was racing the Corvette..but really am not familiar enough with it to consider trying nor do I currently have the time to invest in learning while running a new business
