Its alive S90-V90

posted by  someone claiming to be tjts1 on  Mon Apr 18 13:26 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I just took the 960 out of a spin in the hills. First think I noticed was the idles. Not lumpy but that destinctive sewing machine sound had a nice beat to it. I pull the advance back to about half way between dead center and full advance. I can definitely feel more torque from idle to 3000rpm by the seat of the pants. From there on its a toss up.
If I understand the theory correctly, by advancing just the intake cam I have increased overlap? I noticed idle vacuum has dropped by about 2 inches. Hmmm. sounds like i need more experimenting with both cams. But the good thing is, it works.
