Cam design limitations

[email protected] with .530.....and on a 112?



Others may feel diff but...
The closer you are to the speed ur asking for...the shorter life span that cam will have.imo
the ramp can only be so fast/steep in relation to the lifters face area and it will require high seat/mid lift spring psi to control it.... the lobe wearing out will be faster. imo

More @.050 and or narrower cl will get you into reality with a flat tappet.

I need a 116 lobe center spaing, .500"-total lift, amd 210-degrees of duration @ .050"-lift.

With the large-diameter lifters we have in the opars, I was hoping that would be possible, but it looks lke it's not.

Thanks for your advice and good information.
I appreciate it!
