Default Its Alive!

Finally finished the cam/spring swap today and got it running. Everything looks good and sounds BADASS!

The idle sucks right now, but hopefully it gets better. Took it for a drive and it wants to die at every stop, sometimes it does. I love it though and am glad I did the install myself, learned some things. Hopefully I can drive it ok until I get it tuned.

btw: it was a G5x3 and PRC Platinum valvesprings

very nice. its an awesome feeling when you fire it up for the first time(also kind of nerve racking), not to mention the great feeling of accomplishment after doing it yourself. I just got done doing my swap a couple weeks ago. i also need a tune pretty bad.

Congrats man
