Its working for me now. Isn't it working yet? I down-loaded it and it didn't have sound for some reason.
And heck engine building is simply fun.

Pittsburgracer, Your motor sounds healthy. Can't wait to here what it runs.
I am still having throttle problems. What throttle cable are you using? I tried the Lokar braided stainless and it moves around too much.

Thanks guys. I put a lot of hours in this set of Edelbrock heads and added a roller cam and modified Indy intake to take advantage of the extra cfm. I will post a couple of pictures of my throttle tomorrow but its a pretty basic set-up.

Compression is a little lower than my last 408 as these are open chamber heads that have a small cut. Compression is now around 11.0

Cam specs. roller cam 672 intake and ex with 1.6 rocker.278@.050 duration. 310 advertized.
