    WHY DON'T YOU TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THE AFTERMARKET CAMSHAFT'S.WELL WOULD YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THAT MORE LIFT THAN A STOCK CAM.IF YOU WANT TO BUILD TORQUE THE GENERAL IDEA IS OPEN THE VALVE QUICKLY AND THEN SHUT IT QUICKLY THUS BUILDING VELOCITY OF THE FUEL AND AIR CHARGE.I MIGHT OF OVER SIMPLIFIED THINGS LIKE YOU CAN'T HAVE TO FAST A RAMP RATE BECAUSE THE LIFTER WILL DIG INTO THE LOBE BUT I THINK YOU GET THE GENERAL IDEA.
