stropes is horrible, i cant believe they still are in buisness.
i personally think your injectors are overkill in that setup. 30s would be all you would need. SVO 30s at the PSI of LS1 is around 36#injectors. also for shift points thats normal unless you have the tuner set the shiftpoints for you. just dont have them touch the torque managements.

as for the new sound clips still waiting on the trans, time slips for the old setup none, drove it 530 miles and decieded i wanted more out of it and i had a lifter colasped.

we had stropes even set it, and it still wont shift where its supposed to, we had pcm for less set it, its still shifting there, we got a new PCM, still no good, the car is WAY off, its idling at 1500, wont shift, its only hitting 1.8 60' with HUGE intake ports, oh and I forgot, it made 396 rwhp, and 410 rwtq

with that small of a cam you really didnt need those large of a head. and those are decent figures with a large stall. remember with large stalls you lose HP on the dyno. as for idling did you enlarge the hole in the TB? if not did you just turn the idle screw up? if so back it off and drill the TB blade. playing with the idle screw messes with the IAC and etc signals to the PCM.

also those injectors are messing with the PCM also, you dont need them honestly.

yea didnt need it, but it was a package, i believe they are afr 225's or something of that nature, not sure (slp...bleh) but what I really want to know is why, he is running slower times than he was with stock head/cam? he was 12.50's consistant with old setup and tune from STROPES none the less

mismatched parts. heads are too much for that cam and you have way to much fuel. ditch the heads for now and put stockers or 243 castings and run alot faster. and forget stropes

lol we already forgot stropes, my dad was thinking about the same cam as what I have, and hopefully PCM for less will help us get there, we really were hoping for 11's, but again, this was a kit from SLP it is this one i believe: http://www.slponline.com/view_product.asp?P=12226 only with the cam we had listed
