[QUOTE="FISHTAIL, post: 13123263, member: 19212"] LOL, I do like fussing with it actually. It's still up in the air at the moment. I'm pretty sure I saw metal when I changed the oil to put the drivers side header on (and the metallic plugs were COATED), so I have a sample off to blackstone, and I"m waiting on that. The bottom end is quiet, oil pressure is good, no smoke, and no knocking...so if there is excessive metal, I'm hoping it's from a sized up lifter and I can get away with swapping the cam out. But I don't want to throw 100 bucks worth of synthetic in the car just to drain it right back out..thus, the car is sitting. As for the tune...get your TwEECer and Wideband installed. We can take care of that. I had mine pretty much dialed in before I took it down for the header install. And most of my fussing was trying to figure out my un-documented injector behavior. You have FRPP injectors, those things have known high/low slopes, offset functions and breakpoints. All I'll have to do is dial in your MAF, and your WOT AFR table, and you'll have a basic tune up and going. Also, that's pretty damn good power for your setup. I'm surprised by that. And WOT on a stock fox is in the 11's I think, it's pig rich. Your Aftermarket MAF should have that leaned out some, but you could probably crank it up to 12.8 or so safely. [/QUOTE]
