Re: new cam

Uh, let's go back. Why do you have a huge cam on a stock motor? As has been said, you probably lost a lot more than you gained. Bigger cam without higher cylinder pressures means lost power.

Thanks for answering my question, and being serious about fixing your problem which is illustrated by the full details of your setup, what you've done to the car, and timeline of events you have posted.

Hey, here's another question for you to ignore: why can't you get the car to idle with your tuning gear on it?
