ok i will make this really easy fir you. remove the #1 sparkplug. crank the engine over til you hear a rush of air out the # 1 hole. now put the dist in with the rotor facing the right way. thats the best way to do it.  it keeps you from being 180 out which you are.

Point the rotor@  # 1 cylinder  ;)

Could this be  a valve stem height issue, sure sounds possible.

« on: February 14, 2012, 07:15:10 PM »
This was a fresh build(NOT by me)  ... Customer only raced it once, one trip!  He said o/p was goin down. Problem here was found after my teardown. The mains housing was resized, but the caps walked back/forth & side to side in the block registers,  felt bad for the guy... Dimensionally too fk'ed up to measure anything... It's toast  :thumbdown:

IMHO,   Regardless of who's cam you get have an expert check it before you install it. just because a part is new, it don't mean it's right, jus say'in  :thumbup:

i hate to dissagree but i will, if i paid a good amount of money and my flow sheet had major flow differences in ports i would be upset.. if you look at any good porters flow sheets the ports will be with in a  few cfm of each other. the cylynders flow the same, right? so why not the heads? the manifold should be flowed as well.. that would be like an 850 carb on the front and a 750 on the rear of a tunnel ram. to me that dont make sence :o

RALPH, I miss read Ray's post.  I agree with you 100 percent!.... And Ray wat u know that we don't   :)

Basically, you want the flow to act jus like you see it "Swirl" down your toilet, yes? And now I see some guys cutting massive grooves in the intake runners and combustion chambers, dont get that, except fuel puddling up and acting like a blanket .  Seems to me like loss of low end power, IDK.
