everything after the "..." is coming soon....

the car is running good as is SD...i'm going to do the heads, intake, TB, and MAF at the same time...because i know at that point my vacuum signal would be beyond screwed up which is why people say you cant run an aftermarket cam in a SD engine...

With a B cam the vacuum signal is already shot in the @$$...it may SEEM to run good.  I can assure you though, if you had a wideband O2 on it, you'd see that it is not.

Good luck,

The B-cam is better suited to a 5-speed...in a MAF car.  It's down on low speed torque when compared to the E-cam...a lot of people just look at advertised duration and lift, but if I remember correctly, they have different LSA's, which will make a huge difference.

I think that, according to all of Dougy's posts, his seat-of-the-pants dyno needs to be recalibrated...regularly.

Good luck!
