New AFR 205/FM13 trying to dial in...idle issue
Well new AFR 205 heads, FM13 114 cam, nextek springs, FAST intake all on...seems like we have a problem with the "Idle Adjust Motor" on the throttle body hanging up and not responding...i'm passing on this from my mechanic. Any comments...anyone with problems like this?
The motor is being set up for a dyno tune asap. We have enlarged the idle hole in stock TB to 3/16...stopping there until we get new "idle adjust motor". BTW I have a 2000, stock bottom, AT. Please feel free to wander off the question with any suggestions of preparing for the first few hundred miles witgh new heads, intake and cam.

i also have the f13 and it sounds so damn good! well back to the idle set screw...im gonna assume u have a fbod. its under where the throttle cable connects. its a t15 screw. the head is under so you have to take it out and screw it down instead of up. does that make sense?
