What cams would/do YOU use?
Doing some research for a new cam. Low mileage motor (20K in 10 years) Thanks for the info. |

A split duration cam has different lobes for the intake and exhaust. For example, you could have the intake of the 494 (0.465 by 288 degrees) and the exhaust of the 86a (0.435 by 290 degrees). Or any other combo. Logically, it makes sense because intake tracks and exhaust tracks have different needs in terms of valve action. So it gives you a deeper level of control. Of course, diagnosing what level of valve action you need is the tough part.
