Brake pedal feel

Just a couple of notes and things that i have found in my neverending quest to make my Formua drive equal to or better than stock..

With the cam and engine combo i have been running I've always a notice a tendency for the brake pedal to give a kind of double dip when applyed as if coming to a stop.. Pedal would go down, drop and then recover..

Im a big fan of pulling timing and fuel from overrun and basically came to the conclusion that near idle in overrun areas start putting the timing back in to match your idle/just off idle areas and the problem has basically dissappeared with far more stable pedal feel while braking and the double dip when applying the brakes is gone

just something i found that i figured i would share since we all like to run those little factory cams around here :-)
