Ed, DC had problems with packaging those HO cams incorrectly. I wonder if
maybe you received 1 HO cam and 1 standard cam ? They only way I could
identify the HO cam was a paint marking on the cam that said "HO" otherwise
you'd need to mic the lobes and compare to the stock cams.

Subject: The 4.7L HO Cams Saga Continues, I Give Up!!

Put in new FMS 21lb inj tonight, the damn prob is still there. The only
thing
I can think of now is the cams itself. Maybe the dowell pin on the cams to
line up the sprockets is in the wrong spot, advancing the timing or some
crap, I don't know, but I'm pissed. What a waste of time and money ($300 in
inj, $150 for the cams and 10 gals @ $5 per gal of 100 octane gas) this has
been.Throughout the pinging, the falling on it's face, man, it ain't worth
it
no more. I give up. Stock stuff goes back in before this weekend. As a side
note, the new inj do make it run smoother. Jonas, can we talk?? Promise I
won't take your head of :) Maybe we can try something....... Any thoughts??
