Hey guys, thanks for the info. I havent checked the forums in a while. Been really busy catching up with my school work and getting a speeding ticket  (it wasnt in the corvette though) but anyways, thanks for the congrats PG and also i do have headers and i beleive the gears are still stock which if i remember correctly are 2.87 or somewhere in that area. I am not sure what the stall speed is at all. Your guess would be better then mine. I'll do some research. I'm not sure of what my intake is... The guy before me said torker 2 but i got the car out the other day and spent 8 hours buffing and waxing it and remembered to take a look at it and i dont think he was right... I think im going to take a look and see if i can find any numbers on the intake and track down what im dealing with. Would someone be kind enough to fill me in on what the advantages and disadvantages of a dual/single plane intake are?

I have an Edelbrock manifold and carb. I tried retuning my idle again last night. Works like a charm again. I still would like to know what happened, but damn does it sound beautiful.

Sweetness224: Single plane manifolds are better suited for racing where the engine is operating in the upper rpm range.  Dual plane manifolds work a lot better for street driven cars, better low end torque, mpg, and just more streetable.
