idle speed reccomendation
i have a 4150 holley double pumper, no choke.
cam is CompCams # CS XR288HR-10
10.5-1 compression
engine is a 408 stroker
not sure where to set the idle, 750 seems a little low, and its hard to start, it seems happier with 1k or a tad higher. Any suggestions/input would be appreciated.
Thanks

Ever heard, "If Momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy"?
Ever wonder why we refer to our cars in the feminine?
Basically, find where it's happy, and run it there.
