Glad I could lend a hand.

Hey, let me know if you want to borrow my EIO HPTuners to tune it with. I don't have a wideband yet, I need to get one.

Seeing this just makes me want my car in the position where yours is at 10X more! Erik at HPE is getting ready to ship my motor out and i hope it starts without much coaxing. Did you go with a new cam as well as the new motor? Did you have to do any tuning to get the car started? Was there any exhuast connected? Sounds great!

Yep, new blower cam. It was tuned for the new 60# Mototron Injectors. And yes the whole exhaust was connected.
