PCM programming / ignition timing

[Andrew F]

That's what I figured. Honestly I thought it would lope more until I got the cam card and saw the 114 lsa

Ya. The downside to efi cams. Lol. We run all custom tunes in any motor we run. We have chevy efi running .600 lift and 108 lsa and they drive em everyday. As for the power not coming on. Did you degree the cam to make sure it was ground correct?

 

[Andrew F]

No, I wanted to get it together and running since it's my only (drivable) vehicle. I used a Cloyes true time timing set that doesn't allow much adjustment anyway (2 retard, straight up, and 4 advance). I haven't seen much for timing sets that offer more for the Jeep/AMC I6. At any rate, I haven't even gotten the motor broken in yet so I haven't seen what it will really do. I haven't even had it over 3000 rpm yet. I don't expect too much since I'm still running the stock 3.73 gears on 33x12.50 KM2s, and very little for bolt-ons

Oh ya that's cool 4.56 gears would wake that puppy right up.

 

[Andrew F]

And be easier on the motor with all the city driving and towing I do with it.

 

[Jester32]

Yup. Right on that you have a plan.

 

[Andrew F]

Just not the time and money to get it all done
