Default Model B Camshaft

What is it about the "B" camshaft that is supposed to make it better than the "A" camshaft?

Why would it endure longer? Is it made from a different material?

Duration is the degrees of crankshaft rotation that the valve is open. Has nothing to do with how long the cam will last. Rod
