You've lost me
are you talking about Idle issues?

too big of cam typically has traits of loss of lowend and big gains up high
I dont feel like this has much to do with tuning

even in the old sbc
cam too big, not enough stall, not enough gear, too much weight

you're gonna feel this

I'm leaning towards that one quite hard.....I'd like to go bigger but I'm still paranoid about drivability issues. Maybe I'll order a few I like and have a week-long cam swap marathon this summer....see which one I end up liking the best

All the issues you are having all take a tune that is dialed in perfect and the correct setup. I was just stating the size Flyer was using and how it was working well so he says in a smaller motor thats all.

how much is the dynosim software?

$230 bucks for the pro-setup....and well worth it IMHO. it's the SAME software Comp Cams uses to design cams for people

well, with the old 223 225 cam when i went over the bridge at 80mph I had to give it some gas to help the lag, now with the new cam 226 226 at 80 going over the same bridge it pulls it self right over, I think i finally found the cam for my set up. And no tuneing required, same tune as with the 223 225 cam. same readings on autotap as before. no stalling at idle backing up or going forward.

you may need to swap cams several times to achive this JMO.
