Doug,
I appreciate your reply. A positive comment is always welcomed. I too have recognized exactly what you indicate. I haven't responded to most posts because everyone tends to jump in wagging their "___" playing ultimate engineer assuming I haven’t thought at all about this and simply drew the first thing that popped into my head. Anyways, my requirements call for a straight bolt in requiring no different cams. If my research ends in the conclusion that it can’t be done I’ll probably let it die.
I now have both the stock rocker in CAD as well as the new design. As time permits, I will have the cam, cam tower, and valves in CAD as well. At that point I will be able to actually see exactly what happens (to the valve) throughout the whole cycle comparing stock versus mine. My sense tells me acquiring an exact maximum lift will be no problem. The issue will be the duration because of the larger diameter shoe of the stock rocker and its varying ration, as you pointed out. I like the process and thinking so I’ll continue to pursue for now. Cheers.
