That is correct.

What kinda air to water set up? Seems a little hot.

Yes hot air hurts hp. Hence why it runs strong til it gets to the end. Most are running two cores back to back.
John , I would love to see You put a stock cam back in & see what happens ... that's he only real way to clear this up .
So does air thats too cold...
thats about like comparing apples to oranges. all a stock cam will do is bring the peak hp to a lower rpm, raise boost pressure, and raise the peak torque numbers dramatically thru the whole rpm band. that wont clear anything up IMO. not trying to be smart.
all gregs BS aside, i wouldnt just throw in a hamilton cam just because its proven or being given to you, or because greg is and idiot. both guys have good running cams. zac stuff def works well. its on the conservative side of camshaft design. and is proven. gregs stuff does work well in the right designed setup.
the question is, do you want to do what everyone else is doing and have the same parts as 90% of people out there, or try something different and learn. you cant beat the winners, running what the guy ahead of you already has. or if your satisfied with what everyone else runs, thats also fine too. greg stuff is definitely not your average profile.
not that what I think amounts to a hill of beans, but I prefer to try new things. I think greg is onto something with his cam profiles. personally, a few tweaks with your current profile would be your best bet. In your engine build, I'd think picking a happy medium between zac and gregs stuff would be the deal.
Something like a 210/210 @ .050. pretty conservative for a 4v head. use the big lift numbers like greg uses on the profile you have now. his .200 numbers are way bigger than most stuff ive seen. pull your lsa back to around a 112 and I'd reckon you'd have a very conservative but strong running motor with a few ICL adjustments. buy a billet core from zac or greg and have it ground to your specs.
sorry to zac and greg ahead of time. i dont want to intentionally cut your business or knock your parts. thats not my intentions. both of your stuff works. that being said, this thread was started, and is beginning to sound like a pissing match and could all be solved if people would just try somethihng different and stay off the web and do thier own thing. i could care less about he said she said nonsense. the above profile, IMO, would be pretty legit. i would love to see some results if anyone out there wants to try it.

I agree with you saying you can't win without trying something new. That's why I went to Greg. If he would have sent me a cam card or been able to tell me the specs on the cam without it changeling I probably would still be running it. This hole time it's always been something else's fault. Turbos to big, injectors may be to small, try different gears, and finally after he was pressured more it was oh advance it 4 degrees and it'll fix it. I was fed up. If you remember we talked about cam choices a while back in pm's. I think there's a lot to learn in the cam area if was had pulls like up north every weekend or every night I'd be more app to try 4 degrees then pull then 4 more but only having 1 hook a month most more than 4.5 hours from me it's hard to keep going when the trucks not performing the way it should.
The video was of a low gear pull the only gear it'd get off the line in and it ran down the track and fell on its face. Ill have to look at the log to see what rpm I carried and so on.
Hmm N20 super cools air, guess they are all wrong! :doh:
LOL yea i know nothing about that stuff....:bang
