My point is this subject must have been beaten to *death* by very experienced engineers. Not just by a few Volvo guys (pro and am). For cams mild to wilder than we'd (probably) ever consider. If you look around at solutions done for more common types of engines (like the Chevy SBC and it's 45+ (?) years of development of performance parts) you should find directly applicable knowledge. I'm not saying that you aren't advancing the theory of cam/lifter design here, just suggesting that perhaps others have already done the same thing, and worked through the trial and error of actually building examples and seeing how they worked.
