Degreeing Camshafts

A car with properly degreed cams will make more power than a car with undegreed cams. And as an additional bonus, with the cams dialed in properly, things such as idle, response, and drivability tend to improve as well.

Also, I should say now that I won’t be talking about carbeurated setups, since I honestly don’t have enough experience with them to pass on any knowledge.

Most performance people know that stiffer rear sway bars reduce the understeering tendencies of a vehicle, but if you ask them exactly why this is they generally draw a blank. Usually they know the results, but not the reasons behind chassis tuning.
