I will try a new billet roller cam and possibly a new intake over the winter shutdown. Who should I talk to to get the best cam profile for my combo. I just checked the converter since I hadn't done that since the rebuild. Before the rebuild last year it was hitting 4500 stall and now it is only hitting 3900. I have made probably 50 passes since I checked the stall previsously. Now I have 2 questions. One, did the stall of the converter change because of the added compression of the engine or is it just from use. Secondly, even though I didn't change the cam would the added compression move the torque and horsepower curve of the motor and if so, would it move the curve up or down?
