You will have to check ptv for sure. The ms3 just can't be stopped. I just tuned a ms4 car and wasn't impressed nearly as much as all the ms3 cars I've tuned.

I will be checking PTV clearance like always. You wouldn't believe how much more room you have to play with on these 11* degree heads. So should I try PR first or the springs. I know I had bought these heads when they first came out and people were having problems with springs in a higher lift cam.

Where's your timing at on that run? I had a dip like that in my curve. Turned out to be due to timing.

I would discuss directly with the folks at ETP, but I also wouldn't rule out the pushrod length as an area for further improvement either. The longer length will lead to more flex, especially if you up the spring loads.

26 degrees, it's more of a flare at 3K than a dip- Nick at Newtech spent a lot of time playing with the timing, but it didn't affect it. I actually think it might have to do with my LTs.
