according to the specs you can cure it with the heat from the engine...i'd say a short road trip would be good.

So I went with the rustoleum after hearing some testimonials and seeing how well it holds up.

I was looking at the hardware for the install and I have a question; what is a heat stove? and where do I install it. Pics would be helpful.

Write-up coming soon.. Once I finish the install.

Assuming you've got a vortec motor, you don't have/need the heat stove. Basically, it's a short pipe that runs from one of the primaries to the intake to warm the incoming air. IIRC, it doesn't feed any exhaust into the intake - just acts to transfer heat.

Thanks for the info ^ .
So they're installed, made a big difference :rockit:
I should have the write-up up later tonight.. probably just for the install though. I was going to have another up for prep and paint but I ran into a problem (I followed the directions for painting and about 75% of the paint flaked off :emotions122:)

Right around 3 grand it just pulls harder, and when going to pass some one. All around it seems more responsive. Under normal acceleration there is a noticeable difference in how much less I have to press the petal to get the same acceleration.
