    motors in ill add pics to the first post tomorrow just need to do the fuel pump, plumbing, a lil wiring, and the exhaust.

    do yall think it would be alright to drive awhile untuned on this cam? im running out of money and it will be about a month before i have the extra cash to tune it

    I wouldn't. That's a big cam for a month of no tune. It may not idle, much less drive. You're going to have problems stalling out.
