New guy on the block

I do not at this time have a question to post I just thought I would introduce myself and give you all alittle history on myself. First of all I have been in the automotive field for over 23yrs. For the last 10yrs. I have have manage to install a few GM injection systems into older vehicals. The first was a 2.8mpfi into a '85 S10, and the last one was for myself and my wife to use as a daily driver. It is a long rod 385 TPI w/ MAF. It has Dart heads, Comp Cams roller & valve train, Kieth Black pistons, Stock 350 throttle body, injectors & chip. I have done some port work to the upper plennum. Trans. is a modified 700R4 and a 4.42:1 rear gear. All this stuck into a '82 Short bed Chevy PU. Both tanks have Holley pumps and an adjustable regulator. The air intake system is all hand built w/ twin K&N's. Until 2 weeks ago I did not know of this site and I had been at my witts end trying to figure out how I get the information on learning to burn my own chips. I had in the past had a company out west burn a few for me, but I was never satisfied so I just learned to deal with a stock chip. The truck gets close to 21hwy. if I can keep the foot out of it will dip into the mid 140's. Any way I just wanted to say Hi! I hope you all don't diss own me because its not in a F body.
