I don't know what else to say. They have tuned my car in the past and no one questioned any of the numbers it put out those times.

I just want to know one thing,........what pulley combo are you running or do you not know that either????
OUCH!

Man that stung! I'm running a 3.5 upper, 6# lower Billetflow idlers, reichard upper idler and lfp alternator.

The Motor was a bit too much for me because I have never built a mod motor before and I didn't feel like learning on one as expensive as this. When I get a little time to myself, sure, I'd love to get into one, but when it blew, with my work schedule, building the motor at home wasn't an option.

I don't know what the timing is set at because I simply can't remember. The car was in and out of the shop for months and we had many discussions back and forth. I want to say it's at 17 degrees, but I don't want anyone to jump down my throat again. I will call HPP and find out if it really would make your evening?

For what it's worth, I grew up in a shop and have every bit of business working on my own, and other people's cars.
