I'm confused. Are you saying you developed the web cam #73 amd Jake got it from you?

No, I'm saying that it took me a lot of R&D, including static and dynamic analysis to figure out the correct cam that I need. It so happened that webcam #73 was almost what I wanted but my math showed that 3% more duration on the exhaust will be very slightly better. That 3% is about 6deg but since webcam grinds the camshafts with 5deg granularity, this is what I ordered. By the way, I had to model the L-Jet flexible rubber boot between the AFM and throttle to accurately get those results.

I also said that I'm happy to see that Jake reached the same conclusion with his cam, as this only confirms my calculations.

Interesting.
Did you have your heads flowed?
Are you making certain assumptions as the baseline for the camshaft choice?
