Default Re: E-303 idles mean as hell I thought it was a mild cam.

quote:BTW: I do not reccommend this cam. It is a real PITA to get your car to idle without surging below 1000 rpms.

I had to drill a 3/16 inch hole in my throttle body flapper to get it to idle right. Anyone else have to do this?

I hope this cam performs well with my combo cause it sure was a BIOTCH to get everything right.

Hey! It's really great that so many people are replying to this problem. Only one problem, though. Not one person has mentioned the obvious. The basic. Do you all need "cam swapping 101" for EFI cars. The EEC-IV must adjust itself to the new cam. It must compensate for the different vacuum, and more air that is now entering the cylinder. I've gone through 4 diff cams and each one took about 1 week or 70-100 starts before the ECU learned and made the proper adjustments. I'm not insulting anyone. I just think many of you overlooked the obvious.
