Let’s say that a cam is 108 lobe and you want more intake clearance so you advance cam a few degrees, so how much clearance can be expected for every degree advanced.

If you want intake valve clearance you would need to retard the cam, not advance it

So let’s say from a 108 to a 106. I’m writing this in my book with other stuff for future reference so I don’t forget cuz I get good memory but short. Aloha
