[QUOTE="donkost, post: 350217, member: 2856"] It's certainly a interesting question. My '71 Mach 1 429 CJ-R 4 speed (close ratio) has a bit of an aggressive aftermarket cam that does not prefer the lower RPM ranges. Personally I just put up with parking lot or other slow speed areas with things like coasting as suggested. That's me though, and I'm very rarely in a parking lot with that car. I take my drive and then it's back to my garage. Too many people here in the states that have no respect for parked vehicles. Maybe it's the same on the other side of the ocean. Unless you have a ton of money and can make all of these changes yourself with no labor charges, you could spend a small fortune and get back very little as far as positive results with low speed driveability. Some of them would be interesting changes to try regardless if you have the time/money. This is why the factory normally installs a mild cam. So Aunt Betty can slowly cruise around the grocery store parking lot without the car lurching all over. lol [/QUOTE]
