    THIS PLACE IS GREAT LOTS OF INFO... HI-PER 396 OVER 60 666/320 ALL ROLLER, INT. BALANCED, 8/71, INLINE 750'S HD, 19FT JET UNDERDRIVEN 8%, TIMMING 12 INITAL 30 TOTAL AT 2000 RPMS. JUST FIRED LAST WEEKEND RUNS GREAT BREAKING MOTOR IN AND CHECKING PLUGS. 1ST TIME WITH BLOWER MOTOR MY QUESTION: EVER BLOWER MOTOR THAT I HAVE BEEN AROUND (NOT MANY OUT HERE) THEY SURGE AT AN IDLE, WELL THAT IS EXCEPT FOR MINE. IS THIS BECAUSE ITS ALL ROLLER MOTOR (ROCKER ARMS-LIFTERS-CAM) OR BECAUSE ITS UNDERDRIVEN? NOT THAT I THINK IT NEEDS TO, BUT IT DOES SOUND GREAT THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT................

    If they are tuned right there should be no surge or idle hunt.

    A lot of people, myself included like the surge for two reasons. The sound and it makes it easier on the drive if you put it in gear on the dowmn side of the surge. Backing the idle mixture screws out a very little bit makes it surge more.

    Mine is similar to yours, and you're right, it does sound great. Plus, Just like Craig said, it's easier on the gears if you have a gearbox. Backing the idle screws out should bring the surge back, but a motor with carbs ain't gonna surge like one with injectors and a blower. Have fun...!

    The only way I can get mine to stop surging is to increase the idle speed or put a load on the engine.
    I think it sounds cool!
