Re: Gas mileage saga continues (Sorry, QUITE LONG)



That is enough cam, that it would be very responsive to intake and exhuast
tract changes.  Also, getting to where starting to get peaky (at least
compared to a stock cam).
Might take an injector constant change, and VE/Timing changes to get things
lined up, properly.
Also, might now be way **under** the curve for operating rpm vs VE.
