Default 86 SR and Hot CAM setup update

Hi guys,

Just thought I'd share some good news. The hot cam is in my brother's 86, along witht the SR and trick flow heads. haven't driven it, but it revs really nice :smash: . I'll probably go for the first test drive tomorrow, and I'll be taking my car in to install the hot cam. you guys are right, it has a nice rumble at idle :)

thanks,

joel

picked it up friday, and it really runs nice. you can tell the new
found HP when you get on it. but like i mentioned, it is having idle problems,
when cold and sometimes when the AC is on. i've made adjustments to the
chip to compensate for the idle, and will check the IAC as recommended by other forum members.

thanks (my brother and i really appreciate all your inputs),

joel (p.s. my hot cam is going in this week).
