@Gearbanger 101 - you know of anyone in BC that can help this lad out?
ROTFL....I appreciate the shout out Mike, but you do realize I'm on the other side of the Country from smkshw, right? That's like asking a person from New York if they they could recommend a good shop in California. :D

@smkshw I have done a little business with The Mustang Shop out West in Alberta, but its been quite a while since I've done any shopping with them though. I've always found their prices quite high.

Short trip? You'll get a little condensation under the oil cap if you don't run the car around for a while at full operating temperature. Short trips will tend to build up a nice, creamy goo under the cap after a while, making the owner thing there's an issues...when reality, you've just got to drive it around for at least 20-minutes.

i havnt driven it yet,just let it idle for 10 mins or so a few times to check things out...my oil is oil so thats a very good thing so far!
 
ok,so its running and ready for another tune!....i have the 6psi pulley on now.....i should be 440-450ish i imagine with a safe tune?
Id hope atleast there or better. The motor has some comp and is a stroker. I made 435 at 7.5 psi with an old ass a trim and a stock bottom end with trick flow 170s, systemax, and a tfs1 cam.

Hopefully it doesn't cost you another G for a couple pulls this time. Cost around my area is $150 - $300 depending on what you do. 3 pulls only is $150. Pulls with modifications like installing a chip or removing FMU or installing injectors the labor gets you to $350(not including parts cost).

I need a chip and new MAF, I was quoted $500ish to do all of this parts included.

I will install injectors myself.
