Agreed, I could use some more firsthand knowledge as well. If you can post a writeup that would be great!

I just started my first TPI swap engine (406) today 24 Oct 06. Ran really rough, but all I did was set timing and break in the cam (run above 2000 for 20 minutes).

I can discuss some lessons learned so far, even though still learning. I have some way to go in tuning this thing.
