    Help me create the "Surging Idle Checklist"

    idle Thanks for making this a sticky. An interest side note. Ive tracked mine down to bad O2 sensors and have to wait till payday to get some. So I disconnected the IAC motor and when it goes into closed loop its reading rich and then jacks the timing to full advance and of course the idle...

    car wont start after 1.7 and b cam install

    b and 1.7 You didn't mention a lot of things. I take it you have a stud type adj rocker. If thats the case then you adjusted correctly. Without lifters pumped w/ oil they will bleed down after you adjust. My concern is why the ppush rods got bent It sounds more like cam timing is off, but...

    are these numbers good for compression?

    compression Looks good to me. Yes you should have TB open, it gives a better reading, but seeing you did all 8 the same way thats a very good reading. and yes youll have to burn that condensation out of the exhaust. Id get a lttle heat in the engine and then change oil too Bill

    Tunnel Ram For a 351W?

    tunnel ram 351w I beleive the only way you can get one is to have a race manifold guy weld one up for you. Ive run a couple of 351ws and never saw one either. If youre going for speed a victor or jr will make more power but theres nothing like two carbs sticking out of the hood

    PCV Valve on Trick Flow intake

    12v You can use the cig lighter wire. its the round one that pushes on the center. Its only on about a 15 amp fuse so if your going to pwer something with some amps it would be best to run a 14 or 16 ga wire from fuse panel. Bill
