E.g. your car maybe running low load, low revs and in one cell it's commanding 35* timing and in the adjacent cell it's commanding 18*. In some conditions, it may be swapping between those two cells several times a second, thus the rocking.

I'd hate to see you swap for a milder cam and fnd the problem still there. I'd get some more opinions before doing so.

Thanks for this info Padre! I'll forward it to my tuner. Computer-tuning cars is one area I know nothing about.
