I have a buddy that had the Ford hot rod cams installed a couple of weeks ago and now he is noticing the motor stays up in RPMs more often. It seams to hang around 2600rpms with the air on, clutch in rolling to a stop. it will idle hign like that almost to a stop and that is just normal city driving not jumping on the brakes. And it doesn't do it everytime. he has tunes from Bama in the car. I am worried it maybe a mechanical issue not tune issue.

Any ideas or has anyone else had a simialar issue?

I had a tune issue with my d rockers after install but a new revised tune took care of my problems. My issues were not like yours.

Did you purchase your cams from AM? If so call them up and ask for a revision.
