I did my obligatory search and possibly just not searching the correct combination of words. 383 stroked to 496. Comp Cams Extreme Energy 230/236 hydraulic roller cam. 230/236 duration at .050, .541/.537 lift. 10.5:1 compression and 440 Stealth heads. FiTech Fuel injection. Edelbrock RPM manifold. Has idle vacuum at about 12-13" but fluctuates. Trying to set idle, looking at balancer w timing light, it bounces around. I want 14° at idle. 1st engine I've built w any sort of "cam". All engines I've built or worked on, timing is steady. Is this because of the cam, or is it possibly an underlying issue? Thanks in advance. N yes, vacuum disconnected and plugged while setting.
