Idk if it's right but I no it sounds pretty damn good though

What are the RPMs when you first start it?

I can't remember what it's really called, but you can hook up a hand held tach to #1 position on the distributor and get a true RPM reading.

My tach is off in my car as well.

A little over 2000 rpms.

Your welcome

I just think your tach is off. It sounds good. If it's cold cycling then dropping to where it is, I think your fine.

sounds fine to me and also sounds real good, which exhaust do you have?
