Even Dick Harrell mentions doing that on his cars when he was road testing the very first ZL1 built. I don't recommend it but to each his own.
Unless they jetted the crap out of it. I am concerned because the secondary sits open like that at idle??? Doesn't seem to be a way to adjust it tighter.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
