Thanks for the link, Roger. When are we going to start calling you Dr. Brown? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

The TRD stage 1 cam, if I'm reading the chart correctly, is damn near identical to what I just bought from EB. 262 for TRD vs 261 from EB.

My steat of the pants dyno noticed that the motor a hell of a lot smoother now. I can't tell if there is any power difference though. I'm not sure what I can reasonably expect with the head and o/s valves. To be fair, the motor isn't broken in yet and I haven't driven the truck in 2 months.

With the TRD cam and a cold engine, it seemed to have a pretty good hit just above 2500rpm. Once warm, it felt strong down low. When in 4 low, it felt like a darn tractor from idle. Obviously, I haven't put the new build up through any of that yet.

If the 268 was sent in error (it was installed in the head when I ordered it), the idle could potentially be poor. Correct?

I'll double check for loose bolts just for fun.

Just an afterthought-a pinch of throttle or even if you turn on the AC,the idle smooths right out. Does that indicate anything to anyone?
