Post subject:	Re: Advise, How did it run, Lumpy Idle?
How did the cam run before the O.P. gear stripped? What was the RPM "sweet spot"?

Hi Doc, Best time of 12.06 @ 111. 1.9 60 ft times. In a 1550 lb dragster (with driver), 4000+ stall powerglide, 4.56 gears 10.5x30 tires. 390 Holley vac sec on Offy, 8.5ish compression. MP ported head (1.7/1.44). I wouldn't call the idle 'lumpy', but I let it idle around 900 to 1000 rpm. It would have probably idled down to around 750 and might have sounded lumpy then. I did not notice a real sweet spot, but then I was probably 'on the cam' before the converter stalled also. It seemed to pull good to my 6,000 rpm shift point. I felt the car should be much faster than it was, but the compression was a lot lower than I had been told, and I never really got around to tuning it much before the oil pump gear stripped. I'm having a new engine built now at J&M, this will use the same head but have around 12.5 compression with a quench style piston similar to your previous effort. I'm hoping for low 11s/high 10s. I hope this answers most of your questions. regards, mark mldingba@rockwellcollins.com

Post subject:	Re: ebay SL6 Cam work in van?
Would a cam like that work in my van rebuild? Just curious, it's got an auto in it - but I am thinking of putting the built motor in my 108 van now and it's got a 3 on the tree. Anyway, Thanks for any responses, Talk at ya later, Dan WhaleMstr's Web Garbage! gramma@dm-tech.net
