What can I do to this motor to get any gains? can I mess with the cam timing? are there any cams out there? I am just looking for more low end grunt... it seems like a dog on the lower rpms... but it has some modest power on the upper rpms.

I would say that cam adjustment would help but to be honest, I know absolutely nothing about what to do for these cars (despite having a 240 myself- :oops: )
