It is from a 96 and has a wiring harness and PCM with it. I believe it has about 40K miles. FWIW, this is a friend of a friend who has it, so I have not personally looked at it yet. If anyone is interested (seriously) I will drive over and look at it. He is asking $1800, but I think I can talk him down a bit :) If anyone IS interested, let me know. It is near Chicago, and I can deliver it anywhere in Illinois, WI, IN, IA, MI (lower lower) or St Louis :) TTYL!

We're plumbing new fuel lines on my dad's 240Z for his LT1 install. His car was not EFI OEM so we're changing the fuel tank likely as well. I'm wondering what material should be used for bending new fuel lines? I'll also be adding new fuel lines to my 280ZX which had EFI OEM but I'd like to replace the lines w/ larger for better return and supply so I'll learn on my dad's:-) As well any size reccomendations? he's running the OEM '95 Lt1, 275 hp or so, I'll be running anything from my current 300hp 327 to a 400hp 406 or similar. thanks (do we have to get a bender? I've bent brake lines v. well using round objects smartly....) thanks Ross Corrigan / Vancouver, Canada '80 327ZX IZCC#255, Edmonton Z-car Club #44, British Columbia ZCR Life's a journey, not a destination..

I am mainly looking for TPS, MAP, O2, RPM, SPEED, BLM, INT. I am not sure what or how to send for a request message to the serial port. I don't have a problem with the serial rs232 interface to a PIC. Are there different interface modes ie slow or fast? Is the data just sent in consecutive bytes and I filter the bytes I want or can I request the data I am looking for? I think the 94 TBI truck does use the 8192 baud and sends 63 bytes. I am not sure what info is at each byte location. Can anyone help? I have diacom PC interface. Is there a way to use that interface to determine the required request message and the type and order of data output from the ALDL? Maybe I have asked too many questions, but I can tell I am getting close to figuring out how to accomplish this.

First, is to interface the CPU you're using to the data bus from the ALDL. I think your 94 Chev probably uses the 8192 baud as does mine. Not sure what your PIC or Stamp is looking for voltage-wise, but my laptop needs standard RS232 protocol, like +/- 12v, converted from the ALDL's 0-5v. After you can read the idle string, (endless F0 55 BB, in my case), then sending a request message to the serial port, you can get the data you need. Let me know what exactly you're looking for & I'll see if I can help. My prog's in QuickBasic and I've apparently still got some timing problems; occasional crashes/resets every few seconds to few minutes. Still under development; but FUN!
