Abstract
Disclosed is an overhead rocker cam valve operating device for an internal combustion engine and which is particularly useful for race cars or high performance automobiles. The device includes a rocker cam and connecting fixed plate, the rocker cam arm being adjustable within a slot in the fixed plate to provide for more or less power. Hence, the rocker cam arm can be positioned closest to the cam lobe to provide for performance or speed, or can be positioned farther from the cam lobe to provide for less power or economy.
