I figure a lot of valvetrain compression on the starting side of the ramps at high rpm. .020 maybe, at max acceleration of the valve? Then momentum will probably lessen that at mid/upper lift to Zero. Then the closing side will see something similar. I am going to google spintron testing and see what pops up.
