Just saw a local Tuner guy with a Dyno. He told me that the 74219 cam is supposed to have a choppy idle and if I wanted a smooth idle I should do a cam swap to something different. Idle sucks and I am at wits end. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I've used it in a 383 and it idled like stock. Does your guy know how to tune? How is it running? It is probably lean.
