You have caps lock fever man lol
You will need a smaller belt for sure. You have injectors that can handle this all I'm assuming too!?

how high do you plan on reving this thing? because according to ZZP those stage 2 cams make peak power ~7800RPM. If you plan on taking it that high you need to take that into consideration when selecting your pulley size

I can use HPT. Just a matter of finding a tuner that has time to meet up..
Never even heard of LS2Edit... You think it's all in the tune too?

Quite possibly, mine wasn't running real good till after about 3 tuning sessions with it. And the first one was dyno and street with at least 20-25 pulls on dyno. It took a lot of adjusting to get it where its at now. Once my new clutch is broken in, I think I should be seeing around 350 whp, considering my Spec was slipping the whole time. Oh and ls2edit is just another tuning software, actually much more in depth than hpt. We originally were going to use hpt but there cable was having probs, and had ls2edit right there.

Machine gun as in how it misfires and loses power. Its the sound that it makes. I'm thinking it has something to do with Vince's tune...

I dont have missfires but I would kill for a standalone rite now. Honestly if someone did a write up on installing one id buy a zzp motor.
