Well a while ago i posted that the idle on my car when started would shoot up to like 5 grand, then come down and stay there, then when the rpms lowered it would feel like its gonna stall,


the car has comp racing cams in it, so people were telling me its the cams, the some people said it was a vacumm leak, and i thought that was impossible because the whole head was rebuilt, and put back together recently

And i checked the intake manifold gasket a while ago and it didnt seam to be leaking

But now When the car is running at idle, theres popping noises,( kinda like backfiring ) comming from where the intake manifold gasket is,

so im gonna buy the gasket kit $8.41 and hope this fixes the problem
 
changed he intake manifold gasket...:) also id make sure timing is set right cause kevin was saying he messed with it or sumthin 1 day..if valves were bent ud know cause the car wouldnt run...check the timeing to make sure man

chris
i miss that car
