Ive got a question would grinding the empty areas of the stock camshaft that have no really connection or pivotal points offer any benefits? I mean it would reduce weight and therefore rotational mass wouldnt that improve performance and efficiency? or would it just serve to weaken the shaft altogether?

if you are considering this on a stock camshaft...you aren't anywhere near close to making "ltw" camshafts worth anything
and this is not a practical "weight reduction" modification. This post has been edited by playr158: Feb 16, 2009 - 1:35 AM |
