Degreeing a Cam Shaft

Rat Bastid said
The reason I don’t do the .050 lifter rise timing is because 1) There are way too many variables that affect it. Lifter bank angle variations is a big one and 2) You can have 10 lobes with the exact same .050 lifter rise and all of them will have different intake center lines.

IMO where that valve is relative to the piston at max lift if far more critical than where the valve is at .050 lifter rise (which is .075 valve opening with a 1.5 rocker and .080 at the valve with 1.6 rockers).

First of thank you.

secondly I’d like to apologize for my misunderstanding. I had to reread this thread 3 more times to understand what’s going on. I swear I’m dyslexic.

But most importantly is where the center line (max lift) is in relation to crankshaft. I don’t know why I didn’t gather that from the beginning. Stay tuned.
