Patrickt,

The bottom end has never been touch. It has only received polishing and checking of the crank. As for the Lobak mufflers, these are not quiet. This was the option that EM offered as their off-road race mufflers.

One of the major problems that I am having here in miami is that most of the chassis Dyno are owned by kids with no expierence with Webers. As for the heads they have been worked on already. Larger valves and ported and polished have been addressed. This has also extend into the intake.

It seems that their is nobody in miami that is experienced with the webers only book knownledge. Also I know there are many experienced people on this site with Webers but I am sure trying to describe the performance issues and troubleshooting the problem over the web is even harder.

I have spent alot of money & time with these webers ( which I am sure most weber owners have) but I am still not seeing the benifits of the webers.

My motor is running pretty good right now but maybe I am asking for too much. I have heard that webers run rich by nature. But when you read the books they tell you to do a plug cut and that the plugs should be light tan. I have only heard of only 1 individual that has been able to get the proper plug burn which is ElJaro.

I am sorry that this is turning into a weber topic but I wanted to find out if this cam was fine for me to proceed with the weber tuning.
