Read a post earlier where someone mentioned regrinds and it reminded me I have three similar files with only cams being the major difference.
The "stock" graph is an s52 long block dropped straight into an obd1 e36m3 race car using obd1 ehxuat manifolds, so all three have no PS, no AC and free flowing exhausts, m50 manifolds. The two cammed cars have headers and free flowing exhaust. One has Riot regrinds, one has Sunbelt and 10:1 forged pistons. The 2 cars were put together by owners, just came for a dyno tune.
Since the owner installed the cams, I am sure there were no lash caps to make up for the cam base circle. Since the 24v don't use rockers, the lash has to be corrected or it'd be like an m20 with loose rocker eccentrics (ie: you actually loose some lift with excessive lash).
As you can see by the similar curves, the cams act similar, just down on power.
