Why so much inital timing???

I go along with all that. And I didn't say it was a bad combo........just that MOPAROFFICIAL has a very valid point.

Perhaps.......sometimes like me, his delivery could be a bit more polished, but he is right.

What I would do would be to run a compression test. It costs nothing. I bet the cylinder pressure is at or under 150........but again........so what?

I've run engines before with stock compression and HUGE camshafts......with cranking pressures at 100. LOL

But they sounded kick ***.
What's strange to me is I wasn't rude, blunt...but I went kn to say its fine and he is happy, then all dorks on deck start in..
I said the IVC is hurting the dynamic "killing the dynamic" shouldn't set off red alarms.
