Finally figured it out!! Prototype underway!!

I am very familiar with cam phasers . I have dealt with probably 100 of them over the years.. I wasn't saying that's not what I was talking about. You was saying that that was probably what I was considering.
I said "nope that's not it" by saying that is not the design nor the way I'm doing it. I can see how my answer could have been confusing and sounded that way. I took it as you saying that's probably how I was doing it


Matt,

I offered the video as an example of cam phasing. There are all kinds of ways to alter the cam position relative to it's drive, which is cam phasing. You yourself claim to have seen 100. Again the issue is uniqueness. Are the means you intend to employ unique?
If you have done your due delligence on patent searches and know that your design is indeed unique, then you should pay some attention to this area as well. Mechanical design patents can be challenging, but they can pay off as well.
