Satinepink Neutral Newbie March 23, 2007 Share March 23, 2007 How about for SOHC? As what Brad mentioned, what are the cons of reground cams? Cruise 280 degree... Just ordered but yet to try. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starletgt Neutral Newbie March 23, 2007 Share March 23, 2007 They are good, provided they are re-profiled properly. If not your valves will be "eaten" away by the even profiling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie47 1st Gear May 21, 2007 Share May 21, 2007 Not all cars lah! Some cars are what they call pushrods. Usually those big American muscle cars are pushrods. They are still in production and I say they better end up in a museum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Neutral Newbie May 26, 2007 Share May 26, 2007 pushrods are still driven from a camshaft.. the camshaft is what open and closes the valves at the correct time..every 4 stroke engine has camshafts...2 stroke engines does not.. overhead camshafts will open the valves directly from the camshaft ,where older V8 pushrod engines has a cam that is in the centre of the engine block , then pushrods sit onto the camshaft and the rods come up through the head and push on a lever (called a rocker arm) that pushes the valves open..
