On the topic of ratio lifters, does upgrading a head with larger valves do the same work as adding ratio lifters? OR does adding a cam with significant lift negate the need for a ratio lifter?
If one is trying to build an easy breathing motor, can you forget about the ratio lifters and just focus on the porting / valve size, and cam?
I understand that, when getting to the high side of compression (and low side of clearances) there could be interference between valves and piston. I have no intention in cutting recesses into a piston but I am looking for the deepest "breaths" possible.
Thoughts?
