    Have a cam i just got profiled from a obd1 aba head i had in my collection:


    Camshaft measured @ .050"
    Duration: 224.1 / 225.2
    Valve Lift: .44686"¯ / .44907"¯
    Lift @ TDC: 0.0643" / 0.0414"
    Centerlines: 107.68* / 115.68*
    Lobe Center: 111.7*
    Valve Timing: open 3.41/40.70 47.58/2.36
    Valve Overlap: 1.0*

    What would you think this is good for? looks alot like the autotech 270 but the valve overlap is pretty short ( I believe is the correct term ) which makes me think it might be for a FI setup.

    Throw an Audi engineer down a hole with a ladder and he will fashion a shovel from it and tunnel his way out

    That's what I would assume too.
