doing LE2heads GM847..can I start my car on stock tune..

ok well like the title says..im going to be doing the heads/cam install over the next 3 weeks..when its all done...can i start my car to make sure it runs right on the stock tune? maybe drive it down the street? i wont be beating on it cuz of the stock injectors and fuel pump...but I want to at least be able to start it. im going to get a madZtune and 30#ers and a fuel pump but like i said..i want to at least be able to close the engine up..valve covers and valve lash..

Yes, you can start it up, adjust valve lash etc., but I wouldn't drive around too much w/out any way to monitor how the car is running.

You can start it, but you will need to help it with the gas pedal if you want it to stay running. Make sure it's on stock injectors not on the 30s though.
