What's it at now?
Don't worry, you'll get all the little stuff worked out and you'll be cruising the streets in no time. One question though, just incase I missed the post, you did get the cam broken in properly right? 2500-3000 rpm for 20 min. plus.

yeah on that new motor it should do about 40/60, thats what mine does anyway. if its just pegged aat 60 all the time he might have put a high pressure pump in there, which isn't usually recomended for something like this, high volume is what you want
