I really never heard of "grinding more lift" on a cam. I would have thought they would start with an unprofiled bilit and start from scratch. I never knew they could do that. I KNOW I don't have the brains set-up the equipment to do it.

Boy, I'm grateful for this blog. I learned about valve clearance and duration and know about making a silk purse out of a sow's ear.
