SBC with a Super Stock solid roller. Runs great in 2500 adjusted air and satisfied. Now going to 6300 ft of air and I'm asking what would you do with cam timing ( Jesel Belt), Valve lash. Cam is 1 degree advanced and both IN and EX have .026 lash. Would you Advance cam, Tighten lash, loosen lash? Trying to go the right direction with limited testing at track because of time at event. Thank you Jeff

PS This is just about cam timing as I have a converter for altitude that will let motor leave at 6100 and not changing gears
