Default Ok, so my car finaly runs but I've got a few kinks.

1) Mad exhaust leak at the exhaust mani-bpipe. Getting a used DC Header to fix that, should be in thursday, yay!

2) Start up, seems to idle around 2000 rpm...Now, this head was totally built. Delta 272 Cam, 1mm oversize valves, dual valve springs and milled 40 thousands (and y8 headgasket). How do I go about lowering this to atleast 1000-1500rpm (stock used to idle around 750 which was nice)

3) Now I know I idle kinda high, but after I'm going along if I coast down a hill out of gear or with my clutch pedal pressed, my rpms drop to like 900 rpm, and sometimes (like 1 outa every 5 times) it'l completely shut off. Not a problem cuz I can just put it in gear and it starts back up, but a hastle and I imagine un-needed wear and tear. Oh yeah, ACT Prolite flywheel is probably the culprit..exedy organic clutch. Anything I can do about that?

Ok, I think that's everything for now. Just waiting for the 1 tuner shop in Maine to open so I can go get it all dyno'd and tuned in for that cam. Thanks for the help!

play with the idle adjustment screw on the throttle body Jon it should fix it, thats a opretty aggressive cam so itll idle rough.
