Default EPS cammed LS1 Chevelle

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFJjB_h8DT0

Finally made a video. Car is dirty and camera isn't the best but you get the idea.

EPS 230/238 .600/.615 113+2
slight hand ported 799s
Dougs 1 3/4" headers
Flowtech Terminator 3" duals
900rpm warm idle
tuned by me (first tune ever)

Sounds good but the idle is too high. bring it down in the 7xxs

Not sure how much lower I will be able to make it idle correctly. It was fairly stubborn just getting it to idle at the 850-900 range without surging.

I still have the idle at 850rpm. Haven't felt the need to fight with it for the sake of hearing more lope.

I still love the cam though, the instant torque hit off idle is great and it pulls hard all the way to my conservative 6600rpm shifts.

Hoping to get back to the track as soon as it cools down some and get better times. I've fixed a couple small restrictions in the intake and exhaust since I raced last.

It lopes pretty good in person. The video picks up so much drone from the dumps it helps hide it some.

I can't say enough good things about Geoff at EPS though. Told him what I wanted and this is what I got and it's perfect for me. I was in a pinch and he was even able to get my order rushed to get it on time.
