We started about 10am and didnt finish until 1:30am.. We took are time with it with most of the time going towards cleaning the old gasket material off the throttle body,intake,and waterpump. There were few snags here and there one of which was the oil pan. that was the real pita if you ask me. To some it all up it started on the first try and sounded great(bap bap bap) . I was a little concerned with it being on the stock converter but its not really that bad. It even idles on its own while in drive and my car idles at like 650rpm. Sure it doesnt like it too much but it holds. I do notice it likes the 800rpm better but i'll get everything sorted out in time. just wanted to share my experience with this cam since I know alot of you have it or will be getting it. btw I have the 224-236 blower cam on a 114lsa. i wouldnt call it a lopey cam but more like choppy. I like it.
