I am going to give you a fun factor of about a million on the loudness of your setup. Very scary and intense...I love it. Just dont gun it by any old ladies.

Just noticed your location.. Was it your car that Phil was working on? I've done four H/C C5's just south of you.. We all need to get together once it gets warmer.

The idle is at 950 for now but I'm going to try a little lower. Phil helped me on my car and I've worked on his car to.

Like that idle. Sounds exactly like my real, numbers matching, 69 Camaro Z28 that had the Second Racing Design cam.
Can you email the specifics on that cam to my email address ? tmcalister@sw.rr.com
