bumped the initial timing to 16* and with manifold vacuum hooked up to the canister on the distributor the engine is set to idle at 850 RPM and it pulls a perfect (steady) 20 inches of Mercury (that is as close to perfect as you can get) I honestly don't see my camshaft as much of a performance cam, its moderate at best
I don't think this will impact my engine running hot (notice I did not call it overheating) but only a test drive or two will tell, and for that we will have to wait until tomorrow
