You suggest I try and use a larger gap .28 or .26? I was actually thinking to go smaller/tighter to .20.
Also, i'm wondering if my plug wires might be going bad as breakin up is sometimes a symptom of bad wires.

Spec's included with cam for GSC 280's
lift = 10.32
Total Duration = 288
1mm to 1mm Duration = 218
The key to this cam is duration, not lift, as per Greg @ GSC. The increased duration gives more power & more torque with much better idle as well vs. increased lift.

Nice numbers...I may purchase a set of these to compliment my new turbo kit (Apexi rx6). I'm currently running autronic's but will probably switch back to my ecu with a custom flash. Is there anyone out there running these with a flashed ecu?

My car now idles so much better with these cams vs. my HKS 264/272's...it much smoother & steadier.
Now I run a leaner idle mixture 13's at idle (before I had to idle at 11.5 ish AFR's anything leaner my cars rpm would start to hunt between 1000-1200 rpm).
Should be OK with a flash, I forsee no problems.

when i made 568 awhp on stock motor besides gsc 272s and headstuds on meth/pump gas i was runnin .18 to keep my totally stock ignition from breaking up and it still wasn't happy
