i took it to a different shop today and they said they couldnt find the problem. they said they checked fuel pressure and the injectors. i paid a lil closer attention on the drive home. it rides decent for a few minutes the gets real rough. i pulled over turned it off then started it right back up and it was back to runnin fine for a few minutes till i got home. so its not an issue of it warming up then goin to ****.

it was an o2 sensor. i unplugged the passenger side sensor and it ran like a champ. the sensor is new idk why it caused a problem. i didnt know that sensor could cause such a big problem. im gonna play with it and see if its jus that one sensor or if its cuz i had both hooked up. idk? can i go with no o2 sensors?

you need the 2 front O2's

every time I have an O2 go bad on the LT1 it runs way rich. On the 3rd gen 305 (one O2 sensor only) it ran lean; go figure.

did you get the O2's replaced?

allow me to don my flame suit.....ok

rear brakes do a minimum amount of your stopping. if this is an around town vehicle and not autocross then save your money for other stuff and slap on OEM

Something tells me that should not have happened that easily and there were/are underlying causes to it.
