[QUOTE="fishpick, post: 15562764, member: 182347"] The hits keep on rolling today with the install... I have a page of notes about missing / incorrect parts in the Whipple kit to call about tomorrow... For example - I upgraded to the HO water pump... they sent me the upgraded water pump and a small wiring harness... I [I]assumed[/I] it was just a plug and play pigtail from the old pump to the HO pump... Turns out the small harness they sent was REALLY for the BAP... which is good - because the BAP box had NO harness in there... And there's no clamp to mount the upgraded pump with - the standard clamp in the kit is way too small... I have a rather long list of things like that... I have heard Whipple is tops with kit supply issues... and they have been awesome pre-install with everything else... I guess I'll see how tomorrow morning goes. I'm stuck, as my last post mentions with the auto [URL='https://www.svtperformance.com/forums/threads/whipple-front-feed-tensioner-vs-transmission-cooler-lines.1136192/']transmission cooling lines and the tensioner pulley[/URL]... Sooooo - at the end of the day today I thought - well - since I'm skipping all over in the install at this point since nothing can be completed - let me just take the guts out of the stock throttle body and pop them into the Whipple one, that's easy and simple and I have all the parts for that... First torx bolt came out but was "tough" and I was very ginger with it, second one, no warning at all, top sheared right off... then same thing on #4... and then, same thing on one of them holding the motor in place. Searching the web - there's no part number for those little bolts... so - I guess I'm off to Fastenal or somewhere to see if I can find something like them... I guess after several days of things going really well - it was time for the project to derail into the ditch. [/QUOTE]
