Oh yea....I did figure out the vacuum advance does work.

I think I'm going to pull the cam out and replace it. My Cutlass is in the World of Wheels show this weekend so I guess I will get started on it next week.

I'm still not sure if I will use the new "stock" cam that I have or if I should try to find a mild street performance cam from Crane or Edelbrock.

I remember reading somewhere that the small block Olds like a "single" profile cam....any truth to that? This is my first Oldmobile and I'm still learning.

Anyone have a reccomendation?

THANKS FOR EVERYONES HELP!

By the way here's a pic of my baby:
Nice looking car!

Not sure about the single/dual pattern on the cams. I've noticed that many Olds cams are dual pattern.

Best Regards,
