Default Big cam and vacuum modulation

Any of you vacuum modulated guys having vacuum trouble due to your cam? My new tranny will be in soon and it will be vacuum modulated so I was wondering if the vacuum nightmares some cams cause, can lead to problems w/ the tranny.

You guys aren't installing big enough cams to worry about that even on stock cube motors.

The little MTI R1 has no problems here and there are guys running in the S1 and bigger cams with bigger cubes that are running ok with vm on their trannies too.

So you should be in good shape to go out and enjoy the new cam.

I know it's not big, but my B1 (221/221) cam causes no issues with the vacuum modulation....
