That cam should sound great if tuned right. What’s your hot idle rpm?

Ok, I will do as suggested with regards to hooking up both valves covers with fresh air coming in. According to the link I sent on Post #10, the drivers side valve cover has a "Built In Fixed Orifice Restrictor". That a not a check valve is it? It wont push oil vapors into the passenger side (Clean Side PCV) valve cover will it?

I'm not sure what 'Hot Idle' is, are you referring to the idle after street driving and the temps are at normal operating temps and pressures?

If so then at idle (after street driving, temp. pressure all normal) it is 1100 - 1200 RPMs.
