Camshaft Thrust Loads...
I'm really glad this motor has proven its METAL in Endurance Racing because it looks like there is a cyclic thrust load on the Camshafts because of the Conical Cam Lobe Profiles.
Can't you just imagine the cam bearing thrust loads from getting hammered back and forth (intake Lobe, then Exhaust Lobe, then Intake Lobe, etc.) at high RPM?
