Thanks Mike!
I have a GTech already, and just scoped out a place to make use of it.
The
oil pan is currently off the car and I am awaiting delivery of a windage tray that should arrive by this weekend. Once the car's back together I'll do some base line runs with the GTech and then follw that up with the compression test.
Presuming I don't have a bad cylinder, next step would be to install the exhaust side plates and do more runs with the GTech.
I'll post my results.
I did have a question on the cam you recommended. Maybe I am reading the specs wrong (or maybe reading the wrong specs), but it looks like the H-290 actually has less duration at .050 than what I am currently running, 216 vs 220, although it does have more lift, .524 vs .505. So, is it really that much more aggressive of a cam? In addition to the lift increase, I was thinking I would need duration figures in the low 230's. While I'm asking about cams, do roller cams really generate 30-40 additional HP over non-roller cams?
Thank you for your continued suggetions,
Keith
