I just ran mine through the etest with no air pump and a non functioning egr (no vss signal). back the timing to 0* andget it good and warm. Mine needs valve seals BADLY and it still easily passed.

Do not run the cooler stat. The motor is designed to run at 190* and the fans still will not come on until 210+*. Running the cooler stat will not help get hotter cylinder temps! The 113 heads are a stock emissions head for the corvette. Since the egr is deleted in the prom it doesn't matter what head your running. Back the timing and fuel pressure (if poss.) down, get it hot, clean oil and air filter and run it through.
