300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
Some

of the 4 valve engines had variable cam adjustment.The 3 valve m112 and m113 achieve the same thing by varying the intake distance by use of flaps in the intake track.

Probably

with the cam advance mechanics it rotates and decreases valve lift at low rpm to increase torque and increases lift on that valve at higher rpm for more power top end.

no no no.. my exhaust cam dont have cam advance mechanism, it's ordinary exhaust cam just the cam lobe is slightly vary in design per cylinder, "one is bigger and one is smaller" ; the two lobes is totally different spec.
thru my examine, it's cam profile is different in opening but same in closing, may i know what reason behind to make it like that ?
