Rotor and Cap Tune up Power Difference
While rebuilding and morphing my VE distributor with the roller rocker one, I used an old 116k mile rotor and head not to ruin my fairly new (15k mile rotor/cap). Well I definitely felt a power loss, but wasn't sure if it's the VE distributor or the older components.

Today I replaced the rotor and cap back to the 15k mile one I had on my RR distributor, here are the numbers. With the new cap the mixture went so lean (idle went from 16 to 19 afr), I had to enrich via current injector size variable that adjusts the fuel across the map (like K value does). Last run is of the enriched fuel. These were all done on the same stretch of road, couple days apart but I am using SAE correction to account for that.

Indeed, nothing like good old weak spark killing power.
