"Every cam I design is designed the same way, unsymmetrical, with a delayed, fast-opening, and a delayed, gentler closing side.
When I open the exhaust valve fast, it produces an intense sonic pulse, which gives it the 'crackling' sound.
By delaying the exhaust opening, I also squeeze out some extra torque from the cylinder.
I have done it this way since 1977, and have always told anyone who wanted to know, how it worked."

Scroll down to UDHarold , open all his posts and read away. It's information overload but real knowledge seekers will like it.
Nicest guy with the biggest burning desire for cams & performance you'll ever meet.
Lunati's whole Voodoo line is straight from his mind. (side note: not all of the Voodoo designs are Harold's)
