I'm up for good conversation in regards to camshaft selection. This is one area that most enthusiasts know very little about.
Most believe that bigger is better and therefore make poor choices (IE: loss of performance for the same dollar) Choosing the right manufacturer, and knowing how/why certain camshaft attributes work, can pay big in terms of power output. Anyone care to elaborate more on this?
We can start off with one of several topics:
1) Duration, what is it, how is it determined and how does it effect engine operation?
2) Lobe seperation, what is it and how does it effect engine operation?
3) Why can't you simply compare durations @ .050 and be sure of an apples to apples comparison?
4) Single pattern profiles or dual pattern profiles, what are they, when and why should they be used?
Lets get technical and learn from each other!
