Josh is that the input for the cnc grinder which then interpolates the rest of the cam heights and angles?
i had a go at graphing the ex lobe and although i know nothing about what you do i was able to get something that looked like a cam profile so i think i learned something.
It's always good to watch someone who is good at something do their thing, since you have some knowledge of valves etc. what is your opinion on measuring the gap if the lobe is not exactly 180 deg. away from the valve surface, i would assume that the bottom is ground in an even way and it would be fine to check the gap as long as the lobe faces about the other way, how critical is it, and is the cam in our cb1100 slightly off center so as to rotate the bucket every time the cam operates it thereby wearing an even pattern on the bucket and using more surface area ( less wear ) in the process?
cheers max
