George

My vette was dynoed and tuned immediately after having the heads and cam installed. There was no break-in period. They did the same after I installed the D1SC supercharger, right to the dyno and tune.

Let us know your results.

Can you post pics of the Dyno? What cam are you using? I'd like to see what a full tilt maggie can do.
