You gotta watch all the little things and how they can add up compared with buying complete heads.

Re: Cheap Vortec 350 Longblock Build
"Absolute Pain" is a fairly aggressive statement to make, what is your basis for claiming this? Have you tuned an engine with an LT4 cam before? Have you tuned your engine? What are the specs of it? My point being that this is a mild combo and "pain" is of course relative. Fast355 lays out how to tune nearly this exact combo in the sticky to this forum! Don't rush it Mike, it sounds like you're getting all of your bases covered, it will be a fun car when you're done with this!

Well I am looking at getting the EBL, and eventually the LT1 cam or similar. I posted up on here a while ago, and asked how hard it would be for a beginner to tune for a hotcam. And the experienced members said that with the TBI + the hotcam, it will be a "nightmare" or some other word to that degree. They said the LT1 cam is enough of a project in itself to tune for in some LO3's.
