Cam Install Complete on the C5 
I finally fired the car up for the first time tonight and everything worked as advertised
I took it up the street and back and its trying to get use to the cam. I have a check engine light on right now. Im gonna read the codes but im sure its probably a mis fire code because ive heard the first time you fire it up with a new cam it does this. I could be wrong though. It took me two and a half nights total to from about 6pm to about 11pm (wife didnt like all the garage time) But all in all it was a pretty simple job. The information on ls1howto was spot on for sure!! Thanks Mike for the valve springs , they went in without a problem. The car rides fine and doesnt buck or anything without the tune. I need to get it done though. Jay
