Alright, I've been digging around trying to find info on my cam, I now have the specs on it but how do I translate them into plain english? I mean I've got all these BTDC, ABDC, Lobe lift, advertised lift - what does it all mean? I always thought my cam was near to a Engle FK-8, but by comparing the numbers, mine \"seems\" larger, or smaller if I am reading it backwards
