Default TR224 installed...short video clip

I just got done installing the TR224 cam along with a set of PAC 1218 valve springs last night. My girlfriend has developed quite an interest in cars and wanted to learn more about the mechanics behind them. So I took it slow with her going through the cam/valve spring install. She was able to get her hands dirty and tackle a few things on her own...which really impressed me. Anyway, the install went very smoothly and I thought I'd take a quick video of the start up after install. It fired right up and found idle immediately.

I know man. That's exactly what I thought when I fired it up!! Ive had 4 different cams from a Stealth 220 to a TR230 and this one chops like the TR230. It will probably clean up a bit when I tune it, but I will try to keep the idle as low as possible to keep the chop, while keeping the low rpm surging to a minimum.
