car guy... i get where dis is going.

the pre-vtec cam, one would THINK.... would be the perfect <6000rpm cam for low rpm torque and gas mileage

the aft-vtec cam, one would THINK.... would be perfect for a 120hp/l >6000-9500rpm motor

so one could come t the conclusion that honda made the pre-cam to work great at idle-5900rpm and the post-cam to work 5900-9500rpm

no? it would make PERFECT sense for the cams to slightly overlap and have completely different power curves
