Kinda. Did they tune it on a dynojet with no street tune? I'd expect a little street tuning could get you squared away.

All dynojet snow in our area likely kept them inside.

Bass...if you don't mind telling me...which shop did the work? How much did the charge? How long did it take them from drop-off to pick-up?

Would getting a different stall help out with the bucking at all?

As far as BTR, I am ordering my parts here and there but it only took a about 5 days to get my lifters and trays. I did see that they are out of stock on their Melling oil pumps 10296.

Yes so you match the stall to your cam. BTR can give you help with that too when he specs your cam out. Then you take it from there with what your like in a stall.

Anyone have their mechanic recommend a longer pushrod? this is supposedly the best guy around this area I have been able to find so far and has done other members cars. He quoted 1250 for a cam install, 550 for a dyno hp tune, and 300 for headers right on prices. I just do not want to have my cam done then immediately have problem with too long pushrods. I know they are critical and the ones they show with my cam selection are the stock length.
Run. They seem clueless already brotha.

My BTR stuff shipped today. I already have the pump and damper btr was out of. Summit got those here days ago. 1 week isn't bad.
