Applying the DV 128 formula on a Supercharged engine

[RevTheory]

I'm pretty sure he just basically said, "hey, what about this?"

noun
plural noun: hypotheses
a supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation.

Well thanks for that, Webster; much appreciated! Changed my life forever.

I've been wondering for a couple of years now if you've set an alert in the quantum field or if you stalk him manually. We can go six months without seeing hide nor hair of you but the second someone makes a post that mentions the name that apparently can't be named or types in "128", boy there you are lickety split blowing up the thread with the same ol' same old. There are a couple of you guys that I swear would pop up out of a medically-induced coma if you got a cosmic hint that someone mentioned David Vizard on SpeedTalk and you'd be right back at it with your ass hanging out of a hospital gown.

Just for kicks and grins, I ran a hundred iterations of your OPINION through a 3D simulation program (validated by 5D ) and kept getting the same result. Ready? If a guy wants to kick around an idea that keeps his mind and hands occupied, has some fun and maybe learns something along the way, let him! You don't have to poo poo everything, blow threads up, internet stalk people nor does a low-tech SBC require millions of dollars of digital crap to blow tires up.

Let it go.

Thank you, RevTheory, X2 to that.

I'm not stopping you from believing nonsense, most people do.
Why? Because it is easier than really understanding.
Why is a joke so upsetting to you?

[RevTheory]

This kind of nonsense doesn't bother me anymore. It did a couple of years ago but now that I've accepted the fact that every forum has "that guy", I just giggle for the most part. It is what it is.

I would like to offer my opinion.

If you don't mind, opinion is all I'm that offering, not criticism.

I've followed your posts and appreciate the fact you are very smart.

You used to debate and discuss in a very cordial and civilized manner.

I've actually posted positive compliments on your postings in the past.

Recently however, your posts seem critical or caustic towards others.

Naturally many folks are critical and caustic, that's their normal behavior.

If you were always cynical it wouldn't be as noticeable to dumdums like me.

Now it appears you're looking down your nose at others less enlightened.

Or possibly I have misread your temperament all along.

Best of luck in your future endeavors.

Thanks
Randy

I have always been critical of BS, everyone should be.

For those that wonder why I think a few variables are insufficient to spec a cam.

Look at Jones request form, it has roughly 35 parameters.
http://jonescams.com/drag-race/
Knowing how difficult it is to get people to fill out forms, it is likely that he tried to minimise the form as much as possible.
So after a decades of designing and creating cams why does he ask for so much information?

Whenever someone tells you they don't need much information to do something complex, it is a sign that they don't know what they are doing or don't care about what you are getting.

#us too!!

The enlightened sometimes need to climb down from their high horses.

Us less educated like to discuss and learn, in our own simple ways.

If you don't have time to enlighten us please don't ridicule us.

Many respect Mr Vizard for sharing his findings eloquently.

Most of us still love our old reciprocating Engines.

You moved on to motors.

No problem.

Thanks
Randy

I have tried to enlighten people, but no one wants to be told they have bought a handful of magic beans.

I still have my TXF equipped dyno and engine.
I am writing a book on measured pressure consequences of various engine parameters.
It was planned to be the last thing I do with my shop stuff.
I am on the fence about whether to continue or not.
It seems like very few people are interested in real science and understanding.

is there a reason you don't buy your own 3rd world
country so you can be it's dictator.

[SchmidtMotorWorks]

Without a doubt if I were buying a cam it would be a Mike Jones cam!

Sadly, no cams are available for my ancient Chrysler 2.2 SOHC Turbo

Not that it matters as I'm close to my expiry date so I'm on my last Engine.

You appear to have a gripe against Mr Vizard and possibly for good reason??

Or not, regardless, he shares his findings and many are happy with that.

Many enjoy an honest discussion, few enjoy drive by strikes.

Unless obviously funny, that's different.

Thanks

My gripe is that he promotes with false claims.

Are you suggesting that ridiculing the idea that a few parameters is sufficient to be comprehensive of a problem for which a professional in the field requires 35, is dictator like?

X2.

This thread reminds me of another.. “The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education”
SMW is simply being a clown!

For years Mike Jones has posted excellent FULL CAM recommendations based from just a few simple details from the OP.
Pipemax 4 is also very excellent.
FACTS.
