head and cam results
FINALLY...I did it. Yes, thanks to Andy and A&A.
The specs:
comp cam 220/224
215cc Edelbrock custom heads
LS2 ported TB
90 FAST
AFR dual springs
Rollmaster h.d. timing set
comp cam lifters
A total of 87rwhp/47lbtq of improvement from previous mods.
The car really packs a punch from the mid to top end rpm range.
I DO have problems while firing it up in the mornings. If it's not warm enough it will stall. The check engine light lit a couple of times with the codes pointing to Misfire Detected (PCM 0300), but I'll sort these bugs out with Andy's help if they persist.

Nice numbers on the package! Perhaps the low temp stall condition can be linked to the FAST intake! I heard that they can leak air a little so perhaps when warmed up she seals up too therefore taking away the stall and engine light!
I'm sure Andy will sort it out and maybe just maybe the numbers will jump, which would be an added bonus as well! FREE HP any time YEAHHH!
Hey! Let us know what Andy comes up with.
ALSO let me know if she'll pass smog that way. I too am a California native in Palmdale and not far from you!
Thanks,Matt

I'm running a 222/222/575 in mine and I love it. Idle 750 no surge or stall and making power at an RPM range where you can use it. Lots of guys want the bigger cam and bigger #s but a lot of them aren't even seeing the power until 6700 to 7000 rpm.

My wife and I are celebrating our 17th anniversary in Vegas on Dec 2nd and will have the Vette with us! Maybe we'll cross paths!

did you have to relocate or modify map sensor as many were having issues of it breaking due to the FAST intake?
