Some of you may have already seen this on the other board but I wanted to post up here for all my LTX brothers and sisters, LOL. A bad spark plug wire on #8 was causing the primary to glow red/orange at idle. Thanks to LE for suggesting that I check the wires. #8 read over 150K ohms! It needs to be tuned now and I hope to meet up with Moe today or this evening to get a decent street tune so I can make it to the dyno in a few weeks. Here's a few pics of the engine bay and an idle vid.

Yep. Nitrous Outlet LT1 elbow.

Ah nm, thought it was a full sheetmetal LT1 manifold... if I'm at that point Ill just swap to the single plane with a large single TB.

Looks good though, look forward to some times :)

Yeah, just the elbow is fabbed. The intake is a Vic-E and the TB is an AS&M monoblade.
