Cam Design & Grinding 101
Yesterday I had the good fortune to meet "Pete" who posts on this Forum and spend some time talking with him about cams and the ability to change their profiles to suit our needs for making HP. As they say a picture is worth a thousand words and seeing how the cam grinding machine changes the lobes and heel to make an engine perform differently made it easier to understand how a stock cam can be made into a performance cam. Thanks Pete for taking the time to explain the art of cam grinding and sharing your racing experience. The hobby is lucky to have folks like you and others here on the Barn who retain the knowledge and skills that we benefit from to keep our jalopies on the road and to give them a little more pep.
