to actually finish the tune. Ive put it off for months. The car NEEDs to be tuned on a dyno. And by a shop that knows how to tune the cams. For example... this car noses over at 7600... it shouldnt.

Ahhhh, thats understandable. Seems like it's tough to find a decent tuner these days lol. Thats why I took the plunge and started doing mine myself. It's not perfect, but at least I know I can make changes when I find issues.

problem with tuning the cams, is there is no way to actually dial them in without a dyno. You need to see how they react to changes etc etc. My curve is very wavy... needs to have a lot of dips removed as well as rev higher

Ill run anybody, win or lose. I just like to have fun.. Besides, the more I lose, the more I will be influenced to drop in a 4.5L stroker into this pig.. I think Ju1ce just has too much for me now that he is not limited by his fuel pump. Im limited by octane right now.. And stock short block lol.

Wow dude...I don't think your giving your setup enough credit. LOL....I think you'd give me a run from the sounds of it! You've got to be over 500 rwhp on that setup, and with a built auto to boot.
