Granted, it wasn't blinking, but when I swapped for my mild 219/227 cam I had the infamous "random misfire" SES light.

Like has been said, when you get it tuned the issue should be resolved.

yes, it is only the tune. because of the new extreme aggresiveness of the cam the computer think's it is a misfire. Mine blinked after my TR230 install and it was just misfire codes. just get that bitch tuned and be done with it!!!

LMAO, no sorry man I was talking to the D bag of this thread, not you.

"King" as in greatest lol.

I'm going to try to get it tuned this week or next at Stenod Performance in Troy MI.


--Does anyone know what the proper break in mileage is for a new cam/ valvesprings?

I've heat cycled them about 3 times already, and drove about an hour and kept low rpm's after the 3rd heat cycle.
