Dear friends,

I have encountered the above 2 spec sheets , for 2 sets of camshafts. I was told the 2 camshafts were actually the same, it is a matter of setting up.

Furthermore, I was told that the XXR 01 would rev to 6,500 rpm, while the XXR 02 would rev even higher to 7,000 rpm.

And yet, I was told the 2 sets of camshafts were of the same.

Could someone please help shed some light on me !
(Please find the attachment sheet)

Ask user Alfa7r very kindly and he may be willing to give you some input. Also, try posting this question in the engine section.

Lash affecting cam timing

A very simple answer to your question:

The clearance (valve lash) changes the opening and closing events, thus changing the amount of fuel/air flow that the cylinder "sees".

This changes the rpm range that horsepower and torque is produced.

There is a lot more to this, but I hope this gives you some insight.
