I'll second (chance) that, especially when it's a highly modified car.

You may need 1K idle with cams?
Car still needs a dyno tune,
Oil usage ?

Sounds like un-burned fuel in the exhaust. Leaking injector + waste spark on exhaust stroke = flames from the tail pipe??

You're making progress!!

If the oil consuption is truly resolved, it might be the time to get it on a dyno for custm calibration. At ay rate, it's good to not see any mention of that towel in your post. Hang in there. These cars are worth the trouble to get them right.

don't need 1k idle w cams. In the early years, it was a work around. No need for that today. Yes you can actually run Closed Loop w larger cams.

Karl,

Not quite stock at about 850-900rpm, but no surging or eye burning exhaust either. I am curious to see how much better it can be now w more accurate injector offset values.
