Default Cam Overlap effect on static compression
I have a cam with 70 degrees overlap installed at 110.5. Would you consider 70 overlap to be significant and likely have an effect on the overall compression ratio. I have a static compression of 10.5:1. I'm hoping that it would be reduced a little.
Duration@.050 is IN 226, EX 236---.600/.600 lift---351w

\Also while were on cams would it be worth shaft mounted rockers if I were to ever change cams. Exactly how is the lash done for this. I never had shaft mounted.
Thanks, Lou
