Re: Cam stuff and confusion

["Ryan Schuermann" <rts@phoenix.net>]

Speaking of cams...

Anyone want to enlighten me on cams? like where's the lift, and
what points of the lobe is duration measured at? also what are the 
stock 2.0L 16v cams, what are the 1.8L 16v cams specs..the same?
will grinding the cam lobe yield a better cam?

also maybe enlighten me on pistons. are lighter pistons better? can
i just get a higher compression piston ring? Is there really any 
advantage with going to a taller piston..as long as it doesnt hit the 
valves, eh? heh

also how about cranks. i understand the taller crank gives you more
rpms (longer rod) but what about the piston rods? do you get a
diff crank..or longer piston rods?

damn I can't wait for ND to get that performance book, I need 
something more indepth than my bentley
