Since I had the 416 LS3 installed in the car I've been chasing a few problems:

1) a clunk in the steering from a stop. Inner tie rods? the steering feels a little odd, I already replaced the PS pump and drained/refilled fluid with new. Problem still exists.

2) RPMs drop when steering goes to full lock in both directions and if I don't feed it throttle the engine will die (still dies regardless sometimes). Rarely- but also rev matching on down shifts coming to a stop (no steering input) the RPMs dip just below 500rpm and then they come back up to idle..has died a couple times. Or an alternative to low RPM is high RPM idle after to coming to a stop from rev matching down shifts (sometimes without downshifts). It will idle around 1300 then after being stationary for ~3 seconds it drops back to the 800/900 idle.

3) Throttle cable on the NW 96 TB is loose causing a lag in the throttle input, how do I adjust this?

Any help or input?

I'd find someone local to you to work on the tune. I used SpeedSouth here in Birmingham. I also have HPTuner and can do some of my own tuning or install a tune emailed to me. I also have an LS3 in my car.
