SOHC cam problem

Straight-4 8V SOHC

There is a little animation problem, it happens on 2nd and 4th cylinder (counting from the timing belt side). The exhaust valve rocker arms are lifted before the actual cam arrives in the position in which it should lift. The intake ones are working good though.
Can you please try to fix that? :)

20V DOHC
I found a little something while trying any possible combination of cam/valve configurations. They all seem to be fine, but this is really buggin' me :D

And a little more, as you can see, all the valves are the same diameter shaft, but exhaust valves should be larger, so they can stand the heat of exhaust gases.

do all you can with the Demo then when you get the turbo edition I spotted one with the OHV config on the V8 where the push rod doesnt move it ghosts through the cam
