I have the blue cam on mine as well right now. I forgot their wasn't a 33, it was the 32 I wanted to try (must be on my other engine now that I think about it). I always found it odd that they put such a large gap in the size increments between 32 and 35. Why not go sizes 31, 33, and 35?

From what I've learned, the #2 screw hole on the cams (except for the pink cam) is not for our applications. It's for engines that idle at or above 1000 RPMs, such as track cars. The #2 application is to let the cam come on later. If they were just using the #1, they'd have already lost a portion of the pump shot due to the throttle already being partly rotated.

Wonder if its worth trying to drill a set? pick up a few 32's and try

I don't think I've ever used one of those, but, as once said, a picture is worth....

So the next issue i a small hole in the accel right around the PV 8-9" vac its giving a small hickup/stumble i think when its opening.

and when around 4000+ plus if i let off from full to 3/4-7/8 it picks up a bit.

Thoughts?
