Default Re: Re: Slippery numbers

Not so much the metric and and english system as much as a way to inflate numbers Here is a graph i just made to try and help explain it.

Full camlobe

Okay in this graph I mapped 2 different lobes both starting at 0 at both going to a max lift of .490 (since that is the inttake lift on your cam). It only is a 9 point graph so it isn't precise or anything to say this is your cam. In the example graph you see at .050 both graphs are at the same xy point but right after that they get a whol lot different... we are actually only converned about the area before .05 though for this discussion. which is illistrated here,

under .05 camlobe

Now i drew this in a linear fashion instead of a curve I am getting to tired to draw it fully correct as a proggesive curve, but you see that goes for 0 to .05 for 9 steps if we say the that is 9 degrees (one per point) then there is one that has 9 degrees of duration and one that only has 8 degrees of duration yet they both end up at .05 by 9 total degrees. The p[roblem is that with any thing under .05 is it is such a small difference that it is really negliable.



more tomorrow.
