I've held off as long as possible, but now must ask a silly quetsion: My mechanic informed me that I have a stock cam with a +1 lift. (Not the Engle.) What exactly is this +1 lift? Another mechanic buddy of mine looked surprised and suggested something about gears... He also said that the crankshaft had been dynamically balanced and was couterweighted. How do they balance it? Hook the pistons to the crank and spin it around? Anyhow, just a couple of ignernt kwestshuns for yall. (I can do that...I used to live in Tennessee.) - Mike White [Mail: mike.white@law.utah.edu - mwhite@eng.utah.edu] Visit my own webserver [http://fpc99.law.utah.edu/]
