Has anyone tried roller lifters in a type 4, or any flat motor?

And...when you start 'sharing' proprietary information, people like to have knockoffs made elsewhere and start marketing them as 'their own'. Like the shameless attempted ripoff of the DTM fan/cooling systems. Fact, not speculation. One photo will show what several years of work has produced, and it's not unique enough to Patent. Really? If you can engineer commercially viable, complex mechanical solution from a pic or two on a website ...more power to ya. Roller cam technology isnt new, Idea's aren't Patent-able. Mr Rhodyguy your analogy is crap. From what I read or recall, the item described was purchased and copied. Now if someone wanted to pony up the 15-20 large then ignore the non-disclosure document that I assume Mr Raby probably has all customers sign, reverse engineer and then market that solution to an VERY small, & close knit market.....
