So i just picked up the latest issue of LS1 monthly (GM High tech performance as it is more well known) and in it they have an article about fixing a LT1's ignition problem by installing the LTCC kit. However in the article they say that there original problem is that they are not getting a low-resolution signal but the LTCC kit still needs that signal doesn't it? So they install the kit and guess what, they still have the same problem. Is it just me or have these guys been spending so much time with there LS mills that they have forgot how an LT1 works?

 

Probably, but considering they probably get all those parts for free as they are basically advertising for free, I doubt it matters much to them.

 

I thought it was "GN" High Tech Performance. Guess it depends on the issue. But your right, i read every month and feel like an adopted only child from another planet when i'm done cause i have an LT1.

I thought I was the only one who called it that.

 

you guys are makeing me feel real good about my new subscription thanks

 

lol, i've had one for a few years.. They ususally throw a few stuff our way. But some issues we are like the adopted step children.. lol

overall its a good mag though, i like it.

 

I waited for their '07 Calendar only to find 1 LT1 car, and it wasn't a solo shot, it was amongst a group of other GM performance cars.
There needs to be another all GM (fuel-injected specific) magazine out there.

 

In the article they stated that they weren't getting a low res pulse before changing the opti. If they weren't getting a low res pulse the car wouldn't be running.

I just find it really laughable that they thought "Hey, the opti is the problem, so let's do the LTCC and take the opti out of the picture" without thinking about WHAT in the opti could be causing the problem, if it's even the opti. My money is sitting on the optical sensor being the issue and not the cap/rotor which the LTCC was the band-aid for.

 

The fact that the cover says "your optispark sucks! We show you how to fix it forever" is a bit misleading. It should have read "read how we blindly through parts at a car!"

 

That is an interesting cover title. I have yet to get the new issue, but I would beg to differ with these guys considering there are plenty of Optisparks that live well over 100K miles.

 

Yeah I "Love to hate" Gm high tech. And
3 out of 4 cars in the readers rides were LT1's this month.

The whole industry seems down on the LT1 cars. Jegs/Summit only carry the basic things. I guess its because most think is just like the SBC and been talked about for too long.

 

HAHAHAHAAAA. sounds like how my local GM dealer fixes cars, seriously

 

The guy who posted #8 has it right. Its a band -aid.I cant understand why some one cant make a better distributor that mounts the same way.and use a crank trigger.

 

I let my subscription run out because of the lack of LT1 stuff.
