Tsp stg 2 cam & mds delete first start up help!!
Hi Everyone
As the title suggests i have torn down my Ram 1500 5.7 hemi, new lifters, valves, oil pump, cam phaser locked and stage 2 TSP cam, I will have it back together this weekend, BUT can I turn it over without any PCM modifications or will it damage my engine? I guess I will need to adjust the idle, but any pointers or don't even crank it over?
Thanks in advance!

You can turn it over and start it it will be pissed off but should run a few seconds. i would suggest turning the engine over on a relay jumper so you can get oil from the bottom to the top of the engine. That way when you do start it it wont make as much noise. When your ready load in stock file and ask for help some not all but some will not ask you for money to help you on your tune.

your correct its sometyhing ive seen others do but i like the relay way since it wont put fuel in the cylinder and that also cuts spark. but yead when its started you got some help
ok so i got her started but she doesn't idle for long and sounds like the throttle body is trying to correct, she then stalls, I have to give it some gas to get her going again, I will read the stock file tonight, but I'm going in blind to be honest, I am not building this for a track, just need it to be reliable and punchy for the road/off road. Thanks in Advance!
could you email me the oem read and the file that is in it right now?
thx
LIL, sent!
thanks.
