so just a rough measurement of the light glare it is running at a slope of ~129pixels/535pixels from a particular image i captured

now for lack of a better term, let me see if i can make a rough measurement of "apect ratio" to see how "quickly" its moving toward us moving right to left

ok, so across a total physical distance of ~1.38375" - sorry, old 1970s brown & sharpe mic and vision not as good as it use to be and a HUGE amount of assumptions regarding the lobe width of the cams i have here and the one in your photo,

i reading ~235 total pixel distance between the outside edges of the two exh lobes, with the furtherst lobe measuring ~91 pixels wide and the neasest 117 pixels wide vs an actual width of ~.5425"

time to think a little bit.

Mate it's a dual pattern cam
You need to guess both correct to win
If i hadn't said when someone got one correct. As stated above this could go on forever
It just means it's easier now as you have the intake just got to be first to get the exhaust and you win
