Sounds great. The idle seems friendlier with the 114lsa. What kinda power do these cams usually make?

The 114 definatly makes it a bit more drivable. It doesnt buck jerk at all really even with the A/C on at like 1200 rpm cruisin. Most of the power is up top in the power band also, which is where it should be really. Hers made 440 rwhp @ 6800 rpm with ported Absolute speed heads and all the other necessary bolt ons. For the most part it acts like a stock car with a nasty spit personality.....lol

Her dyno Vid is in my sig.

There is a couple local people that can tune but I gave a shop near cleveland TN called In-Tune a try. I was very impressed with their work. They really focus on drivability. I got my car tuned and dynoed for a very reasonable price. My car only dynoed 395hp and 357tq on a mustang dyno. I know that doesn't sound like much but a heads and big cam z06 only put down 410 on the same dyno. Several pullied cobras put down 410 also. The dyno is nicknamed the heartbreaker because of the low numbers. A couple said it should be close to 440 o na dyno jet but I find that a little too optimistic. I think 420 is a safe bet.

I don't know a silver turbo vette but I do know a couple supra owners.
