1 More Cam Advance question from me....
1 More Cam Advance question from me.... If you have advance ground into a cam, will it increase the LSA of the cam?
Example: You have a cam with a 116lsa and you add 2 degrees of advance, will the LSA become a 118lsa cam?
Doesn't adding advance spread the lobes just that many more degrees apart?
Thanks Guys....

jrp - i do like this part of your cam guide
people get so caught up in the numbers that they forget to look at the entire curve. typical can't see the forest for the trees.

Man I love your sig. lol
If you are in front of the tree but can't see the forest it mean you can't think geometrically. You are to focused on a single point (peak #) and can't take in the whole picture. Don't you hate it when you grow up and your Dad is sooo right.

. same bench, same operator, same conditions.
