If the cam is to advanced the power will fall of quickly too.
Why is the chain loose? did you not change it?

DID you roll the motor over a couple more times to see if it is in fact lined dot to dot rolling and bring the dots back will show when you thought you were straight you were in fact not!






The chain WAS lose, the new chain isn't. I was wondering if the old chain had done something to the cam timing that changed the rev range vs the new cam and new chain. And yes I did roll it over and the dots came back in line. The fact that it's never the same RPM whenever it hits the wall has me fairly certain I didn't goof up the installation.
