Default Just changed plugs and wire...quick question...

Hi.

I just put champion double platinums and crane 8.5mm FireWires on my Cruiser. I have a quick question (that's a concern but hopefully unwarranted)....

I diconnected the negative battery terminal, did everything else according to the book.

When I start the car it idles nice and smoothly. Driving.. no misses, great acceleration, no spits, sputters or misses.. Here's my question/concern..

When I'm in Park/Neutral and idling, when I slowly rev the engine it's nice and smooth, no misses, etc. When I get to around 4 grand on the tach, it drops off then revs up then drops off... sort of like the engine is cutting back the gas or something to stop over-revving when not moving... Is this normal? Never noticed before as I've never revved standing still. I hope it is that I didn't screw something up (initial torque wrench wasn't good so got a new one, but noticed immediately).

Thanks for the input and hopefully getting rid of my paranoia....
