As I was reading a piece (in a Chevy book) on valve shapes I got to thinking about VW's and thier valves. The topic was flatback and tulip shapes and how they affect flow. Basicly what was said was the tulip is a good way to guide the air from a fairly straight port (like the intake) into the cylinder and the flatbacked valve improved flow when the port has a steep turn (like the VW exhaust port). Seems to me that all the ( at least stock) VW valves I've seen are the other way around. Granted, this was used by the factory with a very tame cam profile. My question is what would be a good valve shape as cams have more lift and duration? Say a Web-Cam 86b or an Engle 120?
