    Sneak Peek - Goblin V2

    Maybe a trip to GoblinFest 2025 would give you some comfort in the V2 product. I am hoping to get to see the progress.

    Ross's extended city, easy entry Goblin- 06 SS/SC, NW Arkansas

    Today I found 2 leaks in my gas tank system, by using my smoke machine. One was a hose clamp that needed tightening, and the other was the rubber O ring on the pump hat. I noticed that the tank had 2 layers of 1/8" aluminum supporting the 5 bolts for the pump, but the top of the hat only has 1...

    Engine wire harness question, injector plug.

    I found it here. Yes it supplies power to the BCM.

    "Locked"-Instrument Panel-Gauges Die

    My vote is a Canbus issue. Maybe run some tests on it to see if it has 60 ohms.

    Engine mounts

    Lift the engine when the bolts are loose. Either jack it up from the floor, or lift it from above. Made a big difference on mine.

    Back at it - maf sensor / among few others

    Okay. So that is the way your meter reports infinity ohms. Did you have the wiring harness attached to the BCM, ECU, Power Steering computers? Basically plugged into everything? Measuring 115 ohms when all the wires are plugged in means that you are measuring one of the resistors in your car...

    Back at it - maf sensor / among few others

    Unplugging the power steering shouldn't cause the Canbus wires (pin 6 and 14) to short out (1 ohms). Does your meter read 1 when the wires aren't touching anything? You should be getting 60 Ohms from pin 6 and 14 of the OBDii port. Unplugging the power steering should change the resistance from...

    Mouser has the plugs for a Cobalt, but a auto recycle yard would be cheaper. If you clean the ecm connector you sometimes can find a manufacturer name or part number in small print in the plastic casting. The BCM plug is made by Aptiv (Delphi). AllData will also tell you some info about the...

    That arrow is showing the air flow direction... So yes, you have the MAF sensor in backwards.

    Eric's Track Goblin - 06 SS/SC donor

    I would recommend split spray injectors, since you are using this on a 4 valve engine.

    Ah. B. Normal: GOB-BALT build has Started!

    I can run my 2006 LSJ using a starter bump switch, as long as the key is in the run position. Not sure if you have the P12 ECU. Maybe unplugging the MAF sensor will let it run in VE (volumetric efficiency) mode.

    DIY Front End Alignment

    At 1.5 degrees of camber, I couldn't get the whole tire to touch the road, even during hard cornering. This does depend on how flexible your sidewalls are, and how wide your tires are, so adjust according to your tires. I kept reducing the camber until I could plant the whole tire tread on the...

    The goblin kind of looks meaner when you picture it in the braking zone. Looks like the front is scrapping the road.

    Sneak Peek - Goblin V2

    I like Gray's videos. I didn't know if I had the skills to build a kit car. It was a challenge I wanted, and now I am glad I did. I made mistakes along the way too, all good. Learned patience.
