Numbers from cam swap Well, unfortunately my car doesnt react as well as some when it comes to cams. With mods in sig, I dynoed 346hp/360tq. Before cam, I had dynoed 331/340. My AFR for the new cam run was best of 12.6:1 and timing was 30.4* tuned by predator for now (ughhhh).
Lets see, set of heads, or smaller cam with more bias on the exhaust side????

something does not add-up. What were your mods for the pre-cam dyno #s?

Re: Numbers from cam swap Something has got to be wrong? Is the specs on the cam listed in the sig? I know this is hard on you, I hope you find the problem. Cheers.....

Re: Numbers from cam swap was it unlocked? dont feel bad my car sucks on the dyno. (I use a local mustang dyno) I make 344. but with that it went 11.31@120 so I take them with a grain of salt. I would say there is a bunch to be had with tuning.

Re: Numbers from cam swap uhmm, precam dyno...everything but hte cam, springs and ASP Pulley. Add those in and pick up a whooping 15hp and 20ftlbs. The car was runnign 34.4* of timing and NO, there was no KR. I think the afr might have been 12.3 on that last pull. Cant remember now thinking about it.
Kent, yep it is the traditional TR224 cam, and cant thuink of anything being wrong. It pulls all the way thru the 6500rpm.
Weird thing is dropped about .3 - .4 in the qtr mi. which would indicate a little more than 15hp gain, but then again I am getting numbers from an A4 and not 241 heads.....
