Hey Ken,

Another great Chevelle build!:thumbsup: Looks great. Sorry you had the converter problem, that sucks.

I'm running the Vaporworx tank like that. Is that a pressure sensor or something coming off that fuel line? What's that hook up to? I don't have that.

Thanks

If you are talking about where it goes into the fuel rail that is a inline Filter that I had and decided to put it on.......

I was talking about the brass fitting w/wire that tees into your fuel line right off your fuel pump. I'm guessing that is a fuel pressure sensor for something?

This?

That is a pressure sensor for the Vaporworx fuel pump controller. If you don't have a controller, you don't need the sensor.

If you do have a controller, it won't work with out the sensor.

Yes :thumbsup:
Thanks for the info. I do not have the controller.

At this point can you contest the original HB purchase CC charge? If so, maybe that's the way to go & purchase a HydraBoost set-up thru a different source.

Agreed, still close to being able to dispute the charge and go with another... SummitRacing has several in stock, personally have this hydro boost that came with my '68 Camaro and haven't had any issues.

As the guy that ordered this unit for Kwhizz, I assure you that no one is more pissed about this than me. Really, I promise.

For some perspective, in the past year I waited 4 months for a set of brakes from StopTech, over 3 months for a Dakota Digital order, nearly 3 months for a set of wheels from Billet Specialties and as far as I know none of those companies are going out of business.......nor is anyone ready to burn them at the stake. Getting supplies for and from anyone for anything has been a mess. No company can deliver something they don't have.

To help the reader understand, I am not defending HydraTech. Their lead time has _always_ sucked. Never once have I called there and talked to a person, I always leave a message. Most of the time they call me back. I also think that they are relatively expensive for what they are.

However, I would wait 4 years for a HydraTech unit and I would cut holes in the floor and stop the car like Fred Flintstone before I bought another CPP hydroboost.
