I think mine was pulled 10 or so times...

12 degree splits don't make power and are for nitrous cams only

You should have gone this route to begin with instead of the EC grind.

Yeah am going to buy the stick here soon but my tuner is going to be gone till November so ill have a stick holding paper till then
I just want to see some numbers I think though am gonna run the 64CC chambers don't want to cut into my piston yet. Once I get the Katech 402 then I'll change everything over get my heads milled with 59CC chambers and my reliefs in the new forged internals should be good enough but if i need to cut a little more i will.

Katech 402?! You are moving up in the world! Let me know what specs you get on the cam so you can sell it to me cheap when you get the new motor!

Sounds good, high compression and good overlap makes me smile.

Will be nice to see some #'s, good luck on the dyno!

All I hear is good things about EPS. Maybe when I get some heads on this thing and flycut I'll go with something like this. Though I do love my FTI cam...

Actually it sounds pretty good. What suprised me was that this wasn't even EPSs biggest grind listed for the 5.7 NAs. That 236/248 ought to shake the ground as well. Bring on the dyno sheets!

No, I just swapped out the IAC with a known good one and eliminated the PCV system from the intake as well. Reset the TPS too. Still having the issue. The tuner said just bring it in they can handle trouble shooting as well. The SES is on so who knows.. it could have the answer right there too.

So late on the 12th I'll know exactly what was causing it. They seem to think it's in the tune. Probably not a vacuum leak because it doesn't do it when the car is first started. It will idle all day, but once you crack the throttle and drive it, the idle never comes down.

my new build is doing the same exact thing. when it hangs up i can pull over and shut it off/restart it and all is well. if it was a vaccumm leak it would be constant and it's not. if you get it figured out let me know and i'll do the same

I will keep you updated. There's another guy I talked to who said HIS car is doing the same thing now as well. It will be in the hands of better mechanics soon..
