It is the lifter drop that varies with the cam lift. The nose of any properly designed cam will be just a few thousandths below the journal radius. THe base circle of a high lift cam is smaller, so if you want to make a point about high lift cams you should show how much of the lifter flat is above your plate when on the base circle.

Good point. You can see in the video that the lifter is still completely held from rotating when on the base circle of this .400 lobe lift cam. You should check out the latest short video about how the lifter self aligns.
