Yup your pretty much the winner.. Cause on the max HP run, the torque was lower at like 390. I like how it was breaking em loose on the dyno... Now I just gotta wait for better weather. Dead nuts on the guess...

I am happy with the numbers, considering its through an auto, and I did it myself... First time with late model fuel injection, no real problems with the install..

Yeah, I have to see if someone with HP tuners can bump the idle down a little... She doesnt cam that hard at 950ish...

I think there is a little left in her, HP wise, just need a little more time and a couple more mods, but it should be good for the year. Got a few goodies on the way to make her hook up.... But yeah, completely different animal.

All in all it felt great when I hit the key the first time and she spun right to life. No issues.... Then after the lifters pumped up she didnt want to idle for ****.... Now, just gotta get the dust and dirt off from a winter entrapped in the garage with the hood off.

Cant wait for the nice weather. Miss my hotdogs on Saturday.

You prolly should be ok around 800ish for an idle but any lower and you will start to have some mad hang and surging. What's the lift on that cam?
