Thanks Dennis, Kirk dose do a great job aside from the #s my car is about 10x easier to drive now no surging for a cold start and it dosent buck at low RPMs. Dident see a navy blue SS but there was a blown yellow GTO on the rollers when I got there. I know a kid that has a real close set up to yours with a navy blue SS maybe we are thinking of the same person. (his names Josh). What did that monster of yours put down?

Would this be Kirk Dearhammer, formerly from APE, who also tunes for Hardcore?

Yep thats the guy.
It could be cause I had my heads hand ported and the runnersare a bit too large. Or cause my exhause consist of stepped headers from 1 3/4 to 1 7/8 and through a cut out. Or a combination of the 3.

Brand new fuel pump went bad. It was probably installed wrong. I was up there yesterday.
