Been reading all over the place about roller cams and their benefits. Though I've even seen pictures of 'em, I can't define exactly what makes them different, or why they allow for performance gains.
I *think* I understand that it's related to "more aggressive" cam lobe profiles..? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Now if only I knew (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) "more aggressive" means when talking about cam lobes! Would much appreciate a little clarification... Thanks |
