Default Need Tune or drivable for a few miles?

The car is stalled, and I'm about to put in heads/cam/30lbs injectors. Am I gonna be able to drive this **** to the shop to have it tuned or is it gonna have to be towed?

I wouldn't attempt to start it until you have the injector flow rate adjusted for the injectors, it will dump a ton of gas in there. If not for that you could probably drive it for just a few miles.

Tow it or reinstall the stock injectors to get you to the shop. Swap the injectors back once you get there.

How big is the cam??

Ok so hold off on the injectors, and the car should run fine?

The cam is the mti stealth2 224/220 116lsa
