Intake duration affect on powerband? Will a lower intake duration cam like a 220 or 222 have a more off ideal powerband than one with say 230 or 232? Just wondering if the intake duration is one of the main contributers to powerband?

but it's the exact opening & closing events that actually determine power band, not just the total duration alone.

Your going to have to figure in your exhaust valve timing for a accurate picture.
