havent got a tune yet, i thought that would be the problem.I am waiting for my suspensions and Moser 9" to come in tomorrow. I love the tf heads as far as looks but i dont really know how much more power they will put down. I put a custom grind cam from comp cams for my procharger and motor specs. I will post a video in a bit.

It's really gonna be fucked until you get it tuned. In fact, if you drive too much that way, you risk washing the rings or otherwise hurting your motor. Don't drive it until you get it tuned.
