how many rpm do you think a roller on the cam see's when the berg engine is flat out,

30,000 rpm?
 
run a bearing around a cam lobe and fiond out? pick a starting point and count. i would say it does 2 to 1 of the cam so 20, 000rpm would be my guess.

that would be 10,000 then

if the berg crank is revving at 10,000

the cam is doing 5,000

if it is a two to one between the cam and roller , this would see the rollers doing 10,000 rpm.

8O the cam to roller ratio is 0.6 to 1 :shock:

so at 10,000 crank revolutions the roller is seeing around 8,000 rpm.

that is a lot less rpm than i first thought

very low for a small bearing.

how long do these rollers tend to last ?

i know it depends on what oil you use but as a generalization from best to worst :?:
