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.

No king D bag, I am listening I was just trying to get a broader definition of whats happening.

and in case you didn't notice, there have been a few people saying tune and others saying it's a different issue.

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.

You're good to go. Once it's tuned, let er' rip.
