I'm planning on replacing my upper and lower ball joints in a week, so this would be nice to know . . . but I'm pretty sure that they're a press in joint.

Get your cam yet ?

Already have the cam/springs/pulleys/rocker upgrade, but just beefing up the easy parts of the tranny and getting a tune before I have you upgrade the valvetrain. I know I'll have to get re-tuned afterward, but I want my idle adjusted high enough so that I can drive out of there easier.

It's not going to die every time you let off the gas.

You really can't tune the idle before the cam goes in unless you're planning on bringing a "tuned PCM" at the time of the cam swap.

Just don't plan on doing any aggressive driving or WOT runs until it's tune for the cam.
