Valve adjustments COLD OR HOT????
Do you do the valve adjustments with the engine running HOT or COLD. I did it cold last time and now when the car warms up when i am at a light it wants to die on me sometimes (pisses me off) I am trying to get this all situated so i can sell her, oh by the way i do the lt1 cam and edelbrock intake for TBI's. Any help would be greatly apprectiated.
Thanx

Did you custom burn a chip for that cam? And I do not mean the Hypertech you have. If not I would say valve adjustment is the least of your problems to get the car to run right.
