Default Question about motor.

I have a 383 stroker in my 94'z...and I was wondering if I would have a problem with it idling,etc...The cam is a (230/244-544/576-112) I got a friend with a T/A,with a head/cam package, and he has to "two-foot" drive.when you put it in gear,it will die,unless you drive with two feet...I don't want this to happen to me...Any questions/ideas??

I don't know much about the LT1, just what I know from my friend driving one....With a 383 though it should idle well enough that you will not have to use two feet.....

if its an auto, you might have to do a little tuning, if its a 6 spd, should idle perfectly fine, just raise or lower the idle adjustment on the TB if needed.
