Besides lift, what else about the JHPS & Delta versions of the 104 & 107 cams is different from the Lotus versions? Lotus coined all the original cam names. For JHPS, Delta, or any other cam grinder to use the same names without clearly noting any differences only adds confusion. That's not a 'service'.
