Cam Swap – Completed

So I finished putting everything back together tonight.  The exhaust was fussy as usual but I was fed up at that point and forced it where I wanted it.  I’ll readjust it later.  It also started to over heat pretty good on the first start after a while.  It took about 3 hours of squeezing hoses and slowly adding more coolant in but I was able to take it for about a 15 minute drive without any further overheating issues.  The problem now is that it simply doesn’t want to stay running when in gear with the new cam.  Tomorrow I will play around with HPTuners and probably just raise the idle RPM by 100-150 to see if that will band-aid it good enough until I have the time to sit down and do a proper tune on it.

Here is a video of the first start.
