My guess is you'll need a tune. The Hot Cam is one of the worst for idling. Mine ran pretty rich, even after a custom tune for my Predator. I leaned it up a little more with my HP Tuner, & while the LTFTs read -3.x at idle, it still smells rich so it has to go further yet. And yes mine throws an ocassional code, but it's for the TPS because I had to raise the idle (screw) + drill the hole in the TB blade out to get it to idle at all.
Hope that helps. Good luck!

But with out the tune will be driveable, will it throw codes and relearn after a bit or if i clear the light a couple times will if go away the cars a m6 cars battery is disconnected a upon unishall start i will hold the car up in the rpm's a little to give the computer some time to relearn and adjust.Hot Cam is GM Performance Parts and 1 of the first cams for a LS1 i believe so wouldn't be compatable with the PCM?
