xphantomws6x: You should be just fine for a 2 hr. drive to get the car tuned. Just might not be the most fun ride, but the car will get there for sure.

Chris: I'll do that tomorrow and post that as well.

Is this safe on a stock shortblock?

My car is set to idle in gear at 900 RPM and in Neutral at 1000 RPM. I have a 228/224 and Speed Inc did my tuning. Runs great!

This is great news for the LS1 world, and I give props to Thunder for not keeping the specs a secret. I really would love to go with a bigger cam, but, my heads are milled. I just might have to look into that Isky tool.
