I"m now trying to get ahold of Mike at Vengeance to verify the fuel trims showed a leak. I'm at a loss. Had it not died those times I'd almost just chalk it up to just a deal like this thread right here.

Normal. My 2000 Z28 did it and so does my 2010 SS m6. My bike even does it, no big deal.

Mine shakes all the time... even made my wife sick once...

Dave Coyle · 06-03-2011, 02:56 PM

Mine use to have a slight shake but now it has a big, noticeable shake that makes the hole car shake, AND I LOVE IT!!!!!

mikel441 · 06-03-2011, 03:05 PM

This is why it shakes.

Lift - In/Eh Duration - In/Eh Lobe centerline.

.551/.525 204/211 117

Edit: Corrected that. Just noticed I had lift and duration numbers backwards. Thats what I get for using Copy/Paste. And not proofing.

haha, well I was about to say if your shaking got worse that you might actually have a problem. Then I read your sig. I'd like to get a cam someday, but not while my car is a DD. I drive at low RPMs too much to have an aggressive cam!
