Just don't let it idle on tickover too long!

So when do we get to se the vids of the car on the road
With the roller cams in the LSX engines is that really important? I thought that run in cams just was for tappet lifter cams.

That engine sounds really great, hope that you can keep it with mufflers.

My bigblock had a great rumble sound and my greatest concern with my LS1 conversion is to try to get the same sound from it.

What Cam spec do you have?

Great inspiration
