Plus/minus 10° of adjustability on the camshaft (crankshaft degrees). General affects of lobe separation angle. Narrower: increased overlap, broad torque cure. Wider: decreased overlap, increased peak power. General affects of advancing and retarding camshaft timing. Advanced: moves peak torque and power to lower rpm, improves low end throttle response. Retarded; moves peak torque and power to a higher rpm.
