The lope idle is neat if you're into that thing, but I'm afraid the novelty of it will wear off quickly, especially with an automatic transmission. Holding the brakes against a surging engine isn't much fun for long.

With a 3" downpipe, there is very little worry of excessive EGT with stock injectors as long as you keep the engine in a decent RPM range while towing. Lugging will create a lot of smoke and high EGT.

So drop the smoke and add 80p or maybe high idle becouse I have a race car and have no intention of ever hotrodding this heavy beast.And the lope is just a novelty for sure but there again we are dragracers so its just for goofing off.
That settles it: high Idle (1000-1200 ?????), 65 Tow, 80 DD, Stock, anti theft and lope idle

That is if it all looks ok to you cleatus12r


Thanks Jason

All I can do is offer suggestions and try to save you some $$$ in the process.

The order form won't allow you to put the high idle in position #1 but if you just tell us that's where you want it in one of the "fill in" boxes, we can do it.
