I made calls today to Trick flow, Crane, and MSD to get their takes on my stumble above 5500 rpm. It sounds like valve float is likely not my problem. The springs I have are 110lbs at the seat and 300 at .500 lift. They are supposed to be for Hydralic roller cams so they should work fine with a Hyd FT cam.

So MSD was my last call. I talked to him and he said the trigger wires must be seperate from any wires that carry voltage. Mine are run with all the other wires. He said in that case I need to run a shielded cable. He said this is likely my problem. So this week I'll change this over and hope like hell that's the only problem. Wish me luck.

"High speed miss" would be a good nickname for Melissa.

Steve,

That's good, I'll try it on her this weekend and see what she thinks.

If she doesn't like it, you didn't get it from me...
