There's a new tutorial section explaining the effects of tappet diameter, lobe size, and follower wheel diameter. Primary lobe types are segmented into hydraulic flat tappet, hydraulic rollers, mechanical flat tappet, and mechanical rollers. Each of these basic groups are then separated into unique lobe design families, with design characteristics ranging from long term conservative usage, to aggressive maximum power output.

We've also defined application and engine specific series, with overhead camshaft and translating follower sections for the latest powerplants.

The discriminating engine builder and hard-core enthusiast can use these listings and then consult with our technical staff to produce a custom cam grind, designed specifically for his engine and application.
