Default New setup running well!!!

I finally got my car together thanks to Jay Fisher Pontiac.He had Cunningham Racing Engines,NJ (NHRA PS Engine Builders) do the shortblock for me.Its a basic rebuild,Nothing fancy....

Stock Crank,Piston,rods...
All GM bolts except ARP Rod bolts
All GM gaskets excpect I used cometic head gaskets
Balance and fit with FM bearing and file fit rings.
Ported oil pump and duel roller
Thats it!!

Cartek newest REVIII head is on my car.
Cartek REV I Cam(I'm NOT using the REVIII CAM at this time)
Specs: 224-224 580-580 113LSA+0 straight up. (Little Cam)

LS6 Intake ported by Julio
PTB from Rapid

The enging PURRS at 900 in gear with NO SUREGE or HUNTING
I need to tune it but Cartek is gonna be away for another 5 days so I wont be able to get it up there til next Sat.I have alot of little things to do like fix a H/L controller,setup the susp. and basically make things alittle neater under the hood along with a catch can to my TB/PCV,braided trans lines.

I'll report back with my final numbers but I'll tell ya the motor is awesome
It has 80 miles on it now and just runs its *** off,I havent taken it over 4500 but it pulls hard,idles nice with a very slight lope,(stealthy almost) and then roars to life when u hit the throttle.Oil Psi is a perfect 45 at idle going up to about 70 under rpm.

Thanks to Jay Fisher/Cunnigham Racing Engines and most of all Cartek for there badass S2X Package.I'll be at Atco come March 6th beating the bag out of the car,U can be sure of that boys...

Hoping to finally see the 10's???
