Maybe recheck your camshaft timing. It could be off a tooth. If thats fine it might be worth your trouble to check the key in the flywheel/rotor. Take a spark plug reading after a longish WOT run... still may need to be a bit richer through the mid and top. No ignition mods were done, correct?
If the cam was off a tooth would it still idle so good? The woodruff key is good, I checked that. Im thinking it may be the clutch..

If the clutch is slipping you'd probably feel (and hear RPMs come up) that, especially in 3rd gear and higher... With 11:1 piston and aftermarket camshaft made to optimize volumetric efficiency and cylinder pressures across a broad RPM range, I'd guess that your motor could idle just fine while being a tooth off. If it were mine thats the first thing I'd recheck.
Me and sicknasty will check that thanks for the advice

What about the carb... OEM original or no?
He has an oem original carb. I dont believe it is a carb issue. We put the oem carb off my 400, that runs great, and it was still doing the same thing (we have very similar mods and motor work)..

No need for decompressor as he has an aftermarket cam.. the spring and pin were removed.
