it is a cam that has a lobe that opens slower at first then accelerates---so lobe is more pear shaped than egg shaped----really the appearance is that radical, but it was an advanced design that Crower ground for me back in early mid seventies----it was necessary to use a small diameter grinder wheel so was difficult/expensive(not cost effective---required switching wheels, dressing frequently and balancing of the grinder) and never used for shelh/common cam grinds
The numbers I posted are checking numbers but do not really define the cam's charistics
It also stopped some valve bounce on closing but did approach liftr launch at the high opening rate
