haha gotta love it...you did pick a pretty monstrous cam for what you plan on doing...didnt read the whole thread but did i read youre using the stock stall?...not a smart move...do a stall and keep stock 342s out back...if you have a spot on tune youll be ok but will get irritated driving it sometimes I'll bet
either way good luck and let me know when its done, I wanna check it out
RPM doing the tune too?...Im still fussing with my tune...car is driving much better now..need some more fine tuning on my fueling in OLSD....im getting ready to tune my MAF....then I'll go back CL and hit the dyno for final spark tuning and hit up some driveability tuning throughout all of this
this is me sometimes with tuning (my first car ive tuned)
