  • cam swap troubles?

    So after I got the engine in, I started it. No problems, sounded great, started right up, really quick. I let it idle for about 5 minutes and shut it off. Put trans fluid in the trans, bled the brakes, and now the damn thing doesnt want to start. And when it does start it holds revvs (like a vacuum leak) and will die rather quick. Does it need a tune that bad? Is this the norm?

      Idk what it was, but now it runs decently enough. I just hope it drives okay to meet up with alex so he can tune it. PS, i need some base line tunes, so if people could help out with that...still havent received any. maybe some screen shots.

                Hey thanks! It is crazy how much this car has come alive with this cam. I kinda want to put 3.73 gears in it, and put spme spray on it.
