Put in new cam

[lubbes07]

Hey guys, i just put in a new cam, its supposibly a stage two 50 degree cam, and im not sure if it is a low end cam or a high end cam? i believe thats the sayings for it, plus it is making my truck run really rough, is this wat the cam will do or is it because i have the valve lash adjusted wrong? i have it sit at .006 intake and .008 like the instuctions suggested. ne ideas, The idle is also all messed up now. when you get the idle down, it idles really fast, and eventually tries to die, to make it run fairly smooth i have to have it set at up around 2000 rpms. and its still rough. maybe i have a vacuum leak or is the adjustments wrong and too tight?


ne help or suggestions would be awesome thanks you guys

xl4runner- i got it from my local dealer, no nappa or schucks, im not sure what there called.

ghetto- i just re did my timing while i was doin the cam, so wat is it set at ?

[Ghetto]

I don't know. I am asking you.:D You know that you need to short it out to check timing right.

i figured the thing out, i had a vacuum hose pluged in the wrong spot, it makes a world of difference runs great now:Rockonman

Good deal.

How do you like the new cam?

[lubbes07]

i dont really like it, i went back and asked wat it is and the guy told me its a high end cam, i was mad, but it still gave me a little bit of low end torque, so i would recommend a stage 1, gives more low end then the stage 2:Rockonman
