Hey Craig, my best friend and i used to laugh and joke about a camshaft with rubber lobes that would grow with RPM. Which would be basically like todays vvt setups. This was high school days early 70's. Funny how ones brainstorms sometimes come to pass, L0L. Mark H.

Ping is rarely a thing at high RPM. Virtually always appears first at low to mid RPM.

Hey rubber lobes that inflate with oil pressure could be a great thing!
