John,

I'd go to a dyno shop. You'd be amazed at what they can pick up with the
dyno. You'll be able to see your crank vs cam timing. Your engine firing
timing. Your injector timing. A reliable dyno shop can tell you a lot
about what and how you're running.

Subject: DML: how to diagnose a prob ?

Well I have had a couple of suggestions as to how to diagnose my problem of
being underpowered after the new cam install.
Some guys say go to a dealership or mechanic with a DRB 3 scanner,others say
go to the dyno place and see what they say.
I really wish that one of you Dak Gurus lived in Cleveland.
I guess I'm gonna try swapping out the MSD coil for the factory one and see
what happens, then I'll move on to the MSD ignition.
I have no faith that a dealership will have anyone knowledgable enough to
deal with the situation (at least not here in the cleveland area)
