Default Is This Normal?

On a level surface, fully warmed up, 650 RPM at idle ... in Drive, without ever touching the gas pedal, it will reach and maintain a steady speed of 11 mph.

It's always given a good thump when shifting into gear, even with it's new motor mounts. Moreso than other automatic transmission cars I've driven.

Is this normal, or is my Roger-box a little overenergetic?

Are you sure the vacuum is connected at the transmission line?

And no, sorry, the intake is still not finished, sorry buddy.

Tom,
I do not know about the speed but mine will roll smoothly on idle at 5 or 10 MPH.
