Hi FOT,<div><br></div><div>Just put a Kent TR4-7 cam in my TR4; 300 duration=
. 3 laps at Summit point so far, and past half throttle under load, po=
wer cuts and air fuel enrichens to 10.5:1. BUT plugs are white. &=
nbsp;Was running an RC needle from the old cam, tried RA and not much improv=
ement. Even when moving adjustment to full lean. The last test s=
ession is cancelled, so want to see air a best guess on a needle to try - fi=
gure someone must have experience with this cam and SU=E2=80=99s. 11.3=
:1 compression=E2=80=A6. <br><br>Also, just put in a new HD condenser j=
ust in case it=E2=80=99s an ignition problem.</div><div><br></div><div>Any i=
deas or thoughts? Won=E2=80=99t be able to test the condenser until qu=
alifying tomorrow, but air file holding steady at 2500 rpm shows 11.5:1 whic=
h seems way rich; old cam would be lean under those conditions.</div><div><b=
