The cam specs seem to be inline with the current trend for pd setups. Just for comparison, my cam spec'ed for TFS235 is 225/243 .621/.627 117+5. I am not sure what lobes Geoff uses now but he used to have some pretty aggressive proprietary EPS lobes. I would be sure to get good lightweight roller rockers or trunion upgrades for stock and a 3/8 pushrod to keep the valve train stable.

I was thinking Harland Sharp rockers and that's what I put on Geoff's spec sheet. Is that a good choice?

Thanks guys - how would you say your rides idle...got any vids to post?

Some pros say the HS are a little heavy on the nose if you are going to spin it high. What rpm did Geoff say it should make peak power and expected shift point? You can use the stock rockers with trunion upgrade for weight savings but you will need to order your heads with powered metal valve guides.

Mine is not running yet but should have first startup this weekend. :xfings:

Smooth idle, hardly any lope. Pulls good vacuum and no noticeable drop in power in upper RPM.

Was thinking about it...and remembered I do have an idle vid! My intake is one of the loudest things on the car, under the hood, with the electric fan being a close second. Drives me nuts

Yea I'm surprised how little it lopes honestly. Good stuff.

You must be pumped it came. It'll be up and running in no time. You must be psyched.
