Brian got the tune right on the money. After driving it for a little while to let everything learn itself the idle is at 900 exactly and it pulls nicely. Unfortunately I have to keep the revs up to make power which means my camaro sounds like a harley. Dyno'd at a mere 378@6400Rpm's and 360 Torque Impressive, but I was looking for 400 to the wheels. Only way I'll accomplish that is with a set of LT's and true duals I guess

Not bad. What was the A/F? What rpm was peak torque at?

I didn't have the A/F measured even though I should have since I think it is a little too lean now but the torque peak was right up to horse at 5900 which IMO was strange. It wanted to keep going past 6400 but I bought used lifters and one of them is got a bad tick so it made me leary to spin it more. I only got to do one pull since I didn't pay for it. It seems I made more torque with the stock cam but then again I'm pretty sure my engine is a little tired with 120,000 on the clock. Nothing is truly broken in yet since I can't or am not supposed to be driving (license suspended) so I was limited to staying close to home. I also have no cam surge under 2000 like everyone else says they have, why is that
