I've got to get a base tune from Mr. Troyer first. Get the fluids all circulated, then it's on a trailer and off to his shop for a custom dyno tune.

Scratch that. Can't get him to return my call to even get scheduled on his dyno. Called another VERY well known tuner and he's getting me a tune as early as tomorrow. So, I should be firing it up before the end of the week.

this is a common issue lately with Mike, but then again he's a very busy guy good luck on the tune and getting in dialed in, can't wait to see what your drive impression is

Dam man its come along way, can't wait to here the start up, should have gotten the 605 Romeo Block instead. I am actually thinking of buying a high miledge s197 and swapping out the old 4.6 and swapping in the 605 Romeo block.
