leanin sidewayz is an unknown quantity at this point
We cranked the engine by hand until we had the crank mark up top where it was supposed to be and the cams as well. They sat like looking like this < >

We then reinstalled the CAS with it centered and it also met it's mark. And man I'll tell you this thing never ran so smooth. Let it get warm (started doing it's dumping thing then stopped with a bit of throttle), I took it around the block and got on it a bit. Best powerband I've felt from it. Turned it off, went inside, and when I went to drive home. No dumping idle.

So to answer your question, yeah either my IACV is stuck, or shot. Or not doing it job correctly. My bov? That pos could very possibly be leaking. It's very cheap lol.
Now I know the ecu has it's own means of an idle after it gets warm and closed loop stops. I believe it reads from the o2? I have an opportunity to buy a Freddy Intake with a IACV included. I may take that route since getting to the IACV that's crammed behind the stock intake seems near impossible. I herd of a way to set your idle via revving your car to 2k for 2 mins with the TPS off then putting it back on and adjusting your idle screw? I'd have to look that one up again.

Lastly, the freind that's helping me do all this built his SR from the ground up. His does the same exact thing with the dumping idle. So either it's HIM f'ing up somewhere. Or we both have a similar issue. But his always goes away with bleeding the air from the coolant in the waterneck. Not mine though. Today's weather is garbage. So the time I will have to look into anything will be pretty minimal.
