Just got my Polluter installed...

For such a big cam in an auto its driving like a dream. Gotta play with it for like 20secs when starting it to find its idle, but after it keeps itself alive the car is driving suprisingly well. No dying at stoplights or anything. So far only put 30mi on it after the install so maybe im jumping the gun though lol.

Now i just need to get my 3.73s in and my 4k stall on and toss a tune on it and i should be good to go for a while.

yeah right...

oh yeah, right now its idling at around 650ish maybe. should i set it to idle at around 700-800 for the time being to make it behave a little more? I'm still suprised she isnt dying at idle, i expected the worst.

You're running that cam on a stock stall converter? You've got *****. I bet that thing yanks on the brakes every time you stop.

tbh it only pulls on the brake in reverse lol, atm the driving behavior is really good.

I bumped idle up some today and 55mph became cruise control lol, and it liked to surge forward on the 2-1 shift coming to a stop... so i set idle back down.

Getting tune and possibly stall done this weekend thank god.
