[@gregprince5283]

I have a red iroc that I recently put a zz6 efi crate 350. Its been a nightmare. I have a tick on the driver side of the engine. I dont know if it's a bad lifter, or a loud fuel injector. The tapping is causing me a ton of stress after spending all that money. I also thought maybe it could be low oil pressure. I had a Mechanic adjust the valve train and bring it down to zero leash and then a turn. That didn't help either. I could have bought a blueprint engine for half the money and probably not have all these problems. Last time I buy some junk gm puts their name on.

[@Brandon-LSX]

Sorry to hear that man. I would be returning that crate engine for a new one asap.

Why would you have two tachometers right next to each other ? Two tachs only 4” away from each other? Aside from the added on shift light, I don’t understand . You can get a stand alone shift light.
