Oops again



Valve timing changes can of course cause problems with interference engines 
if the point of maximum lift is changed by enough. Changing the cam profile 
is less likely to cause a problem if maximum lift is not changed, but it 
still can. Valves remain open at TDC on all strokes but the compression 
stroke, but valve lift obviously cannot be at a maximum there, or the 
engine would not be classed as an interference engine. Back to the drawing 
board for me.
