Ha ha, If I had a dyno right in my back yard I probably would have done it like that, I guess I'll just have to buy my own...

What are you doing regarding getting the tune done, heard TBI was fairly sensitive to cam timing. Are those the heads you ported awhile back or did you swap them out? Thought you used iron ones.

Keep us posted.

Yeah these are the heads I was working on the aluminum '113's. As far as tuning goes, I was planning on datalogging for a while and see what needs to be done, but today I'm having trouble getting it to Idle. I'm thinking I need to go the EBL Flash route.
