    Its your exhaust pipe ! The area of a circle with a diameter of 4 inches is 12.566 square inches vs a Ellipse w. Major diameter of 4 in and Minor diameter of 2.5 in got an area of Area 7.85 square inches ... point is : you got to run a Minor diameter 6.25 oval exhaust pipe to have the same flow as a 4" round pipe !

      @Joebobinator Месяц назад +6

      Even then he will lose a lot of velocity due to fluid drag because there's so much more wall for the same cross sectional area. It's the same effect as making a pipe super long.

    You generally can't time aftermarket cams to the factory marks. There will be a cam sheet with the timing specs that come with the cams and they have to be set or checked with a degree wheel and a dti on the valve.

    I think the switch back to the stock intake manifold is a big part of why it’s making more down low but rolling over so hard. Also even though the ge cams are the same duration the fact that they are opening and closing the valves a few degrees earlier could make a difference. Just some things to consider.
