Just a thought, but the PW3 was surely designed for the F750 racers , presumably with the so called big valve heads and short stroke cranks.
The PW3 was designed well after the F750 period had ended.
When Peter was racing and developing at Thruxton he produced a new cam design every week according to some, but the PW3 design used computing that was not available to him in those days. As I understood it, it was the cam he wanted to design in the '70s.
And considering the limitation that has been revealed today at high rpm it was hardly designed with only short strokes and big valves in mind!
