And you are running this on the stock ECU... right ?
So how does it run ?? The stock ECU only has limited ability to adjust the fuel and ignition. Once the modifications to the engine go beyond the point where the stock ECU can keep up, performance and drivability will suffer. Big cams affect the engine vacuum, particularly at idle, to the point where the engine may not idle at all. They also change the amount of air entering the cylinders, so that the engine may run dangerously lean at high rpm, and ridiculously rich at low rpm. A duration of 272 deg is usually considered to be at the limit of the stock ECU. Raising the compression, porting the head and installing a free-flowing exhaust, will allow you to take advantage of the improved breathing of big cams. But until you get control of the fuel and ignition maps with an after-market ECU, you will never obtain the full benefit of your modifications. Cheers... jondee86 |
