According to my cam card, the cam makes it's peak power at 5500.
I'm gaining 22 mph between the 1/8 mark and the traps, which I'm told is good. I'm wondering just how much my carb, and intake is hurting me with gains like that.
I'm starting to lean towards improper timing in the dizzy or it's coming in too late.
