fresh cam install how long before wot
is there any break in period besides the few heat cycles on the springs after a cam install. in other words how long did you wait after cam install to get on it? im anxious to see what she has. thanks

oh yeah good pt . i got my wide band in about 2wks after the cam and found out that like abve 5k it would lean out to 17:1. i could feel it and i noticed that the O2s dropped off on my laptop. when i first saw 17:1 i about cried i had hit the rev limiter about 10 times before i got the WB working.

then he needs to make sure tuning (detonation)is right and a/f (burns a hole on piston) is correct. plus springs do need a heat cycle before wot. cam does not, cause there on rollers. "springs" need it........you mentioned u drove it for several days now, how many times did it cool off other then parking it for the night? 5 or more cycles should be enough. just make sure it's tune and a/f ratio is good.

heat cycling springs is old school, you dont need to heat cycle the valve srings is what I was told from more than one vendor on more than one cam install on an lsx. They aren't the old steel springs.
