    big cam tuning tips

    anyone willing to share some moderate to big cam tuning tips? 2010 silverado with a 224/232 113lsa cam.

    coming to a stop/idle down, and right off idle taking off from a stop light. anything would be helpful.

    i know everyone has their own method, and im more or less looking for a collective of idea's to mash together.

    i have got the off idle down, right now it's the coming to a stop thats an issue. little bit of bucking. not violent, just subtle enough to annoy me. aside from that, i think i have it going pretty well.

    when your coming to a stop is the tq converter still locked? if so i suggest raising the MPH in which the Tq converter unlocks when coming to a stop, that may help some of the light load bucking when coming to a stop
