whats the full specs of the cam you are running for your torque to peak sooooooooo early... (in my opinion) i don't think that cam is good for your setup

ya i'm thinking the same thing now, the full specs are 226/234, 109 LSA 565 on intake and exaust

not sure but this is what lloyd recommended with my setup, with a 3000 stall and 373 gears

Probably from the stall...

ya i'm sure but the TQ fall off i'm wondering why ? It is a daily driver, i did request to have a setup that made good low to mid range power

Whats the scoop on Edelbrock heads? How do they compare to stock castings?

ignore everything <4500rpm on the graph newbs. Looks like a healthy curve to me, just not making any steam on that dyno.

why did they cut the run off early? it'd be nice to see a few hundred rpm after peak like the red graph.

ya the tuner said that it was cut early as well, not sure why, but ya it can't be the install because the cam was installed by two different intallers and the hp and tq is retively the same? Can someone explain this to me? Is there a possibility tht I may had recieved the wrong CAM from lloyd? Just really wanting to know what's going on.

See what it runs, dyno numbers can be misleading.

Without A/F ratio who knows how close the tune is. I gained 40 rwhp with only A/F tuning after having a "dynotune". Having the graph stop too soon doesn't help the numbers either. It looks like it hadn't really peaked hp yet.

The graph clearly plateaued a few hundred rpms more was not going to show any meaningful gain.

From the smoothness I would doubt a mechanical issue.

I think it is just what it is.

i see what you are saying guys so everybody agrees that by the graph that it seems to be running fine, and as should be. But my thing is the cam and why it drops off like that. Do you think that cam is right for my setup, i wanted it to make good low to mid range power but it drops off during the mid range. Any ideas ? Thanks

I think the heads are ****. You can have all the cam in the world and if the heads stall out at a certain point, its not going to make power beyond that.

I'm not knocking Lloyds work because his ported stock castings put down 400+ ALL the time, I am just saying edelbrocks arent worth what it cost to ship them to you.

I know its probably not what you want to hear but you need to either live with your numbers or BURN that setup and put something together that has a little more potential.

I haven't seen so much fail in a single thread in awhile. It's been covered multiple times why the graph looks like it does but you keep blaming the cam.

Do you not see how the little line is heading towards the bottom of the graph after 6500? If the line is heading down that means it will keep heading down if you rev it higher, which in turn means it has in fact peaked.
