So the good thing is this morning I put everything back together and started her up again. I held the RPM's at 1800 - 2000 until the oil temp hit around 200. Then I shut her off. Hopefully I get out of work here in about an hour and do one more cycle before I drive 1.5 miles to the tuner. Still somewhat paranoid and Im sure I will be babying the crap out of it until I feel comfortable. Oh, here is a good thing I noticed this morning, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON!!! lol

sounds awesome bro! the smoke is normal...you're breaking in your cam as well, so its going to burn of the oils that were used to machine the cam. thats probably what a lot of the smoke was that you were seeing in addition to the finger prints ; ) the tune is WAY off with the addition of a cam/headers/intake...especially since you're still on a stock tune. its trying to adjust the massive amount of air but probably can't keep up with it. try doing a fuse pull to rest it...just a shot but it may help

Cograts - I think you've got it. I listened to the vid and yours sounds like every other cammed LS3 I've heard when still running the stock tune. Once you gently drive it over to your tuner I'm predicting good things. You've earned it !!

You did it right bud!
The tuner will be able to tell if something is wrong. After he takes it to the max you'll feel comfortable lol.

I feel a 500rwhp dyno sheet for ya!!

Haha thanks for reading, hopefully someone can learn from my mistakes and/or chuckle with me at my screwups lol. This is the first time I pulled the engine and essentially rebuilt it. Fingers are still crossed.
