we've got the motor running! couple small problems with a few things, but pretty much all things we're working out.

biggest problem is though, it wont idle. we're trying to break in the motor, and if its below 1000 RPMs or so it'll just die. what should we do for a tune? we're going to get it dyno tuned, but we're wondering if theres anything we can do to get it to run ok while we are breaking it in.


306 with e303 cam, edelbrock rpm 2 heads, 1.6 rockers, cobra intake, vortech v3 supercharger. 42 lb injectors bbk adjustable fuel pressure regulator, 255 in tank pump + vortech inline pump msd 6al, + vortech think its a timin controller bbk long tubes. etc. we've got the inline pumps fuse pulled and it ran a little better. it was running rich as hell and we've dialed it down a little and its running better.

we don't have the MAF hooked up, could this possibly be causing some of the roughness?


btw, these cars sound amazing open headers makes me wanna run out and install my cut outs now.
