that describes more what is the difference between the requirements of long vs short rod motor, not how do you know that the cam was better suited one vs the other.Stan Weiss wrote: ↑Wed Mar 04, 2020 11:43 pmCamKing wrote: ↑Wed Mar 04, 2020 10:33 amAll the testing we've done, shows that to be correct. The higher rod/stroke ratio like a later exhaust opening, but seems to like about the same exhaust closing.Stan Weiss wrote: ↑Tue Mar 03, 2020 4:23 pm Maybe Mike can way in. Based on what I see the long rod might like a later exhaust opening.The exhaust was covered earlier.

i ran some sims in ENGMOD4T with what limited info i had, and for two vastly different cams it showed the same trend as the test that the long rod rod has better VE at lower rpm and at higher rpm the shorter rod made more VE but only a few numbers. the trend was the same with both cams. the average joe is not going to try several cams a degree or two here and there with no other changes to optimise things
