− | Rick Jones says he will guarantee the software's accuracy, with a full money back offer. And Rick stated that there is no story to go along with a video or charts on a overhead projector. This calculates the required valve motion to fill the cylinder and generates the curve, then displays the total calculated cam configuration, as fast as you can enter the values. It is an equation. It doesn't matter the size .7854 ci at 30,000 rpm....not a problem. | + | Rick Jones says he will guarantee the software's accuracy, with a full money back offer.

There is no other software or person, given 2 selections, that will come within 3.5% (that's around 20 HP on a 600 peak HP engine)of the cam selected by this software. |
