What i have found tear down and build thread
#21
Well I think for some shitty reason that the guy that did the tune tried to break it it just doesn't make sense I have beat the crap out of my car for a while broken many transmissions until I got a tep and gmr chain. And 22* of timing is insane the most it's ever ran is 19 with 110 in it

It's was all hpt this guy that was tuning the car prefers efi live so that's what was used in the last file. I have hpt so that is why I sent hpt file. Regardless I'm over it I'm going to find another tuner or have Kevin from cartuning tune it in person when he comes to fl after Christmas. On a side note I picked up a engine today Its complete heads,water pump channel, flywheel, intake alt bracket, valley cover pretty much everything except the short block for sale pm me for anything anyone might need

To be honest Kevin had my car running great before cam swap and wasn't able to make time after. Kevin spent a lot of time loged on to my computer and car ran awesome. And definitely never would've blew up the way it did with his tuning. There detonation alot of it. So I could find another guy that has great reviews like the last guy and might end up awesome or with another grenade of a engine. I know that there are many different ways to skin the cat Kevin in my opinion thus far has been the best to me.

yea but 91 the motor should be stout enough for his cam,he was with stock rods,so all the upgrades he is doing should suffice,but builder will have something to say about that anyway,he is not gonna stand behind something he knows is outrageous,i mean he will do what pimpala tells him,but he will guide him i think
