You shouldn’t have to wait much longer to hear my smooth idle cam! At this point, it’s going to be music to my ears regardless of how it sounds. If I had listened to Ted and stayed with the stock short block, I certainly would be up and running by now. I’m sure he is correct that I would be fine at around 8 – 10 psi on the stock pistons, but the motor was already out and, damn, those GPI pistons and rods are sexy looking! Between my machine shop being backed up, then having to wait on custom thickness gaskets from Cometic, this project is taking me far longer than anticipated. I was able to get the motor back in yesterday; all I have left is the blower and a few more incidentals before I’m ready to fire her up! Of course, I still need to figure out how to use HPTuners to unlock my ECM and load Ted’s initial tune – we tuned using an SCT tuner the first go around.
