Wa,

Getting the Wheeling Fever

this is the cam i got:

Gross Lift

In 431 Ex 431

Advertised Duration

IN 272 EX 272

.050 Duration

In 220 Ex 220

RPM Range

1500---4800

Valve Lash Hot

IN 6 EX 8

i have it in, have the truck running, and the truck is loping extremely hard. i only get it to smooth out by inducing more vacuum (raising idle). And, any small vacuum leak is turnedinto a huge one with this cam iv'e got. So when is big too big? And is this the circumstance? I just can't seem to get my rig running right. thoughts, PPLLLEASE! i want my truck back!!!
