Are you doing the work yourself? Are you upgrading oil pump and cam plate? Cam bearing?

Congrats on the kit, RDC401! Keep us posted on your 22X! I plan on having mine Dyno'd, but my tuner is suggesting I put 500 miles on it before I have it tuned.

I did buy the cam tool. Hopefully this makes things easier.

Trainwreck43....Have you had a chance to dyno this kit yet...I am in the process of helping a friend put his in with the exact same cam as yours...Was just wondering what kind of numbers to expect...I know exhaust and breather can make a difference....but was just wondering what kind of ballpark numbers we are looking at....Thanks in advance

Had a delay due to chasing an intake leak. Found it and completed the build today. Test ride is tomorrow. My tech says I gotta put 500 miles or so on it before I Dyno it, so it make be another week or so before I do that. Also, I have some extra valve train noise, so I may take the pushrods and lifters out and try that again. Other than that, sounds good so far!
