Digging this thread up as I'm getting ready to set up a Web312A cam.
Web indicates the following specs for this cam:
Valve Lash (Inch):.006"
Valve Lift (Inch):0.390
Advertised Duration:310°
Duration @ 0.050": 270°
Lobe Center:104°
Intake Opens 31°Before TDC
Exhaust Opens 59°Before BDC
Intake Closes 59° After BDC
Exhaust Closes 31° After TDC
Valve Timing Is Checked With Zero Valve Lash @ 0.050 Inches Of Valve Lift.
Though they provide duration at 0.050, they don't specify what the actual lift should be here. Also, in their general set up instructions (not specific to any cam), they instruct to measure lift at the valve retainer on pushrod engines (not at follower).
So, after I've confirmed/adjusted lobe centers as close to 104 degrees as possible, I'm assuming the main value I should be concerned with is duration @ 0.050?
Anyone with experience degreeing webcams please chime in, did you take all the measurements from the retainer?
Cheers!
You should ping Mr. Comstock, @comnoz, as he has a wealth of experience with these.
