Alright so about a year ago I installed Kelford 272's on my car. My buddy had done the same a few weeks before and I was in love with the sound/lobe on the car. However, same person did mine and my car doesn't lobe much, sounds more like a rough idle than anything which I am certain it is not.
Base timing is at 5* BTDC, everything is dialed on good, car was dyno tuned and all, nothing wrong with it. Just wondering why such difference from one car to another if we have identical cams? I've also heard a few more with same cams and they actually sound cammed.
I am at work, but I can upload a video later today.
Any ideas?
By the way, both cars done by the same person and both tuned by me.
So you guys have a idea, I put these two youtube videos up for comparison.
This video is pretty much how much my car "cams" not much and it's more of a stumble. Mine stumbles a bit more as my idle is lower than this guys:

This is how all the other 272 Kelford cams I hear sound, including the one that had the identical cam setup as me.
