Brakes suck. The camshaft is robbing my vacuum.
Been chasing a hard braking condition under panic stop conditions. All braking components have been determined to be good including the master and booster. I have to stand on it to make the ABS kick in under panic stop. FTR I have 12" LS1 brakes too.
For giggles I put a vacuum guage on the intake and I have:
12" at idle with AC off
10" at idle with AC on
Stock cam made 20"-22" IIRC.
I am confident I dont have any vaccum leaks. Motor runs well and BLMs are near perfect. So its the cam robbing my vaccum that is affecting my braking. I have a 224/230 which aint that big. But its on a 107 LSA with lots of overlap and according to folks who are smarter than I am, thats what is doing it.
What are my options here other than replace the cam with a tamer LSA??
