Last night was the start up ran it for 25 minutes between 1500-2000rpm. Now i need a tune then we will have some #'s and track times As far as a video goes i'll take some but i'll need help with setting it up on the site. I will try to get video of it idleing on monday or tuesday. I can't wait to drive it and feel the POWER BTW even with my old tune this cam idles at about 1050-1100 rpm and it sounds nice, Can't wait for a full tune

just curious but how are you gonna break in the motor? arent you supposed to run it below 3000 rpms or something close for 300 miles or so to break it in?

Good deal! I did the same thing this weekend, I installed my FFHP 408ci, & it sounds like a beast. (straight headers) I know exactly how you feel.

as far as breaking it in i was told to run it for 20-25 min between 1500-2000 rpm and then i could have it dyno tuned. What i would like to do is to be able to drive to eastside for the tune which is a hundred something miles away then have it tuned. Kinda in a rough situation with it needing a tune i do not want to drive it to much but i would like to get some miles on it as well
Z'mnypit, congrats on your motor
