06-11-12, 12:28 GMT+10#247 As in bellhousing bolt? It would be the centre top one. The chev-toyota box bellhousing I have here is the same. I've seen one with a lug welded to the top of the bellhousing for the extra bolt

06-11-12, 21:09 GMT+10#249 I don't use that top bolt hole either. T400 on the back of the LS1. The other bolts hold the gearbox just fine.

what thread or post number? the only info DIY info i can find is all US based forums so i assume their looms are fair different, and local autoelecs charge more than ebay guys...i dont really feel confident choping up a $250 loom without a well written guide by someone who actually knows what theyre talking about.
btw i havent really read every single post in this thread, suppose that would be a good place to start :P
edit: just read the pdf files on post 196, looks like a nightmare, and this is coming from someone who has no probs getting their head around a vn v8 loom for example...but im far from an electronics engineer lol, is there something a bit more simpler besides paying someone? basically looking at a standalone type loom.

18-11-12, 01:26 GMT+10#253 With enough $$, I might be persuaded to do other people's custom looms. I've done 2 now (Mate's VT with hidden wiring, and now my own). Connected a VL Body connector so it just plugs straight in.
Some pics of my loom mid way.. lol.. takes a bit of sorting it all out but easy once you know what you need and what you dont.
