Finally figured it out!! Prototype underway!!

Matt,

So you meant you have seen 100 + engines with VVT. Not 100 + different designs. I should also add that in general most VVT is showing up in multi cam engines. The reason being that this allows overlap changes which we will not have available with our single cam engines.

We all know that retarding and or advancing a cam index will move the power band and response over the usuable RPM range of any engine. So while you may not have the flexibility that VVT offers with multi cam engines, hopefully dyno tests will offer improved drivability and streetability for more radical cams and or offer a bit more top end power for milder cams.

Yes to the first part ^^^ . said that basically meaning I had to deal with them (work on engines with them and dealing with them directly, ie.. Unloading the cam phaser or resetting the phaser during engine work) a lot and understand there operation. And have had to repair vvt problems on them itself.. (Usually dirt or carbon buildup or permatex!!). No didn't mean I have seen 100 styles

And yes on the 2nd part. Designing this to Be able to make the power band wider. Basically by being able to keep the cylinder pressure up in the lower RPM for max TQ and still be able have the high rpm HP on a race engine. So higher rpm hp trade off you normally have when degree for bottom end would still be there... Basically having best of both worlds at the same time.
No more sacrificing .
And like you said about mild street cams, it would allow nice street manners but pull top end like a cam that would normally be more radical at idle
