Mine idles at 750-800 rpm's and sometimes 850-900 when the fan kicks on in the heat. I'm running 800cc RC's. Later Allen

Hmm.. does it still sound stock? Maybe your tachometer is wrong.
I'm thinking 250rpm would feel very rough.

how do i check if the tach is wrong? its at 250, but its smooth as a baby's ***.

Re: where do you guys idle at? (technine)
When I did a motor swap, I idled at 250 until I adjusted the idle control screw. It also idled really really smooth. Sometimes I would think the car was off since it was so quite and cranked it to here grinding from my starter. I kinda liked it at 250, but I kept thinking it might die out at a stop light after hard driving so I raised it anyway.

My idle is right at 1000rpms right now. I'm running a Speedpro B2B w/ 550cc's and no IAC valve. Going to work on getting it a tad lower if i can.

nah, mine has a "0" then a space, then a hash, then some more hashes, then a "1" denoting 1000rpm, and the spaces in between are that between the other marks along the tach...
ah! what i said meant nothing.....its just at 250
