Yes, I degreed the cam and followed what Comp Cams recommended on the cam timing.

The jets are rather large. It was running way lean with the stock jets in it. We kept bumping them up until the cylinder temps came down...in all actuality, it could have stood more. That Vic Jr intake didn't help much either....it was not uniform across all 8 cylinders....one side varied more than the other, etc.....

What size carbs are you guys running for this cubic inch size? Is a 750 too small?
