"because the fact the idle FLUXUATED"
I guess I did not pick up on that one as EVERY
engine (Pontiac) I have owned, the idle fluxuated!
(At about 5 inches of vacuum and .600 lift, I was never smart enough to get that quarter to balance
on the intake manifold).
Most of the time the hammers were shaking off the walls, the neighbors were complaining about the
noise from the open headers, and the cops were driving by to visit, have some coffee, and "shoot
the *****."
I guess I am a "Grasshopper!" Too dumb to take
that "bad" camshaft out of the engine and put on
of those "good" 17-18" inches of vacuum camshafts
in the engine so the idle would not fluxuate.

ps If I had known he had one of those "good" cams
in his engine I would have immediately ruled out the transfer slots as the air flow requirement
would allow closing the blades below the slot.
