I've heard that advancing the stock cam 2-4 degrees can help get rid of the lag that 5-0's have in the lower end. Has anybody done this/ does anybody know if it's true? Does it kill the top end or does it still pull to the redline? Thanks for your help guys.
"You were right, the B cam, advanced 2 degrees on 1.7 RR's was the way to go. 1st of all the idol is mean, sounds much meaner than even bigger cams. I'm kind of getting sick of people always asking me "what's in that thing". 2nd of all low end tq is also good. Mine is a daily driver, can't afford too much bottom end loss. True, it's choppy under 1800rpm, but once after 2500rpm it's alive. I can do 2nd gear starts even on slight inclines... "
