just to use as a starting point for tuning presuming we have adj gears?
What about per tooth?
How many degrees is a one tooth manual adv/ret equal too?
got a question. to advance the cams, the middle portion would be turned clock-wise with relation to the outside? that's how i'm picturing it in my head but wouldn't be surprized if i have it backwards.
thanks for the links crazee
i'm still having issues with the car. it still gets hung up @ 4500. it runs perfect up to that point. it doesn't matter what i set the ajustable cam gears at(i've tested every possible combination). nothing seems to affect when i hit the 'wall'. i have no idea what would be causing that. any ideas are greatly appreciated. once i have this issue solved, i'll finally get her dyno tuned.
i'm running the microtech. i've got a pretty decent tune, so doubt the tune is the issue. the afr's are good when it happens. i don't think it's either spark or fuel issues but i could be wrong.
at 4500, it stumbles. like it just tripped over it's feet. no knock or misfire. just feels like all fuel gets cut or something.
i'm pretty sure it's not a vacuum leak as it idles ok and runs perfect till 4500.
the only other thing that was done when the cams/gears were installed was bumping the idle up. i doubt that would cause this.
looks like i'll be taking the valve cover off tonight to make sure the timing isn't off a tooth or something.
i still haven't found what the problem is. the cam gears are lined up perfectly('e' on exhaust gear is in-line with 'i' on intake gear). the cams are not installed back wards (intake is starting to open as the exhaust is closing). the cam gears are not slipping. the soft cut is set @ 6750 and hard cut @7250. the timing is not locked. i've got logs that show the timing is advancing as it should. the plugs all look good so i know i don't have a dead cylinder(s).
i'm completely at a loss, this is starting to stress me out a little, too. i don't want to dip into the dyno tune fund to sort this s*** out. i'd hate to throw the stock cams in to see if that solves it. that's kind of the last resort. please keep the ideas coming.
thanks for all your help so far, guys
You have a microtech log?
When i said "are your cams in backwards" i meant, do you ahve the intake and exhaust cams in the wrong place - have you swapped them around by mistake.....
Have you changed anything else around the time when you did the cams?
I'd also try getting everything computer wise back to the simpliest possible set up you can have. Turn off all the inputs and outputs (double check that they are all off, even if you are not using them for anything), go into normal mode (idle/load tuning). Recalibrate your TPS. Double check your ignition and injector wiring. Then triple check it.
