And I greatly appreciate the actual help that I get... sometimes it's just "hey dumbass, get a VE. You can make just as much with 2.0 as you can 2.3 in a DE - AND have low end torque too..." - yeah yeah i know..
what I
didn't know is that the Kelford 184c has what looks like might be an S3 cam equivalent on the small lobe..

that would be nice for what I'm looking for, though I can't imagine it's AS lopey as a Brian Crower BC3 cam at idle..
it would have to have much more lift, because it certainly doesn't have the same duration. Or is it the timing of the cams with cam gears that makes it a Kelford 184c equipped VE idle lopey?
BC stg 3- .495 LIFT / 272 DEG.DUR
