Done! Think of all the time I will save now. So much saved time for activities.

Idles at 700 and is as smooth as stock with the LSXr/t. Hope to get the truck to the track next week to se what it runs.

Comp Cams XFI/XE-R lobes
3017R/3729R HR111LSA +1 advance (110 installed intake center @ .050)

Just didn't make enough vacuum to be street friendly. I think it is more of a Nitrous cam i was told by the guy who had it spec'ed

Yea you won't be getting a ton of vacuum with a 111 LSA. I don't see how he would think that is a nitrous cam. Nitrous likes wide LSA's and more duration on the exhaust side. I would have installed it on a 107 or 108 ICL to push the curve lower and bring up the DCR. It would have been a whole new animal.

Pat G knows his stuff and if you give him enough info on your build and what you want out of it, he hits the nail on the head almost every time. You are the only person I've see that wasn't happy.

I have heard of others. Not saying he doesn't know his stuff but unless you personally tune the vehicle you never truly know how they will act as all are a bit different.

He had all info off the TSP build sheet (motor was built for a 250 shot) and the truck specific info. It's fixed now but as my tuner says...beware of internet jack monkeys from LSx forums...lol
