Won't begin to speculate on numbers, just have to see what they produce. As far as FI - there's no success like excess!!

Haha, agh don't say that! The idea is for me to be convinced AWAY from FI.

watching as I have been sitting on my cams, waiting to see how this new grind goes, good luck

h2oplay · 10-19-2012, 08:11 AM

looks intimidating to work on, there's a mile of chain there....

I hope this works out great for you folks.

I have to ask the RX folks, what kind of power could the original MACE grind have produces if one had the internals to support a high RPM?

Thanks

H2O- I read thru the service manual and the procedure is detailed really well. After these go production a good tech should be able to handle it.

Regarding the first set, if I remember correctly, Steve said the cams would spin 9k or better - that was in the thread by ultrasonicking.

Mydreamcar - Matt said he would start data logging as son as everything was back together - I think he has a "road trip" planned! Guess he decided to take the ol girl out for a bit.

Either Matt and Rodney took the day off or they are hot rodding around town!!

J/k guys - know you been busting a$$ on this.

Ahh so it is running then!? Had any feedback as to how it feels?

Yellow_Glide · 10-20-2012, 09:49 PM

Not yet. It's only a 17 mile road trip. Should be an update late tomorrow night on how she runs.

Jarp · 10-22-2012, 05:21 PM

Hey Glide....any impressions from Matt on how she drives or feedback on cylinder/vacuum pressures?
