i had to do the same to mine.. even the tuner was having trouble getting the idle table to where it wouldnt hunt for the idle.. we drilled the hole and all problems went away.. went back to stock idle tables and the car idles like a dream. no hunting and smooth as can be.. with the zr1 cam it made it even better with no idle tuning what so ever

Curious as to what you used to clean out your cylinders. Mined have a good bit of carbon on the piston heads.
I used B-12 Chemtool fuel system cleaner worked like a charm
