Cam lobe profiles often do not permit the spring to "put back" the energy into the camshaft because the lobe shape dictates the timing of the valve opening and closing, thus, the lobe is always working against the spring tension.
The cams open (lift) the valves kind for a certain amount of time (duration) during each intake and exhaust cycle. The timing of the valve opening and closing, relative to the position of the crankshaft, is important. The camshaft is driven by the crankshaft through timing belts, gears or chains.
Pushrods are long, slender metal rods that are used in overhead valve engines to transfer motion from the camshaft (located in the engine block) to the valves (located in the cylinder head). The bottom end of a pushrod is fitted with a lifter, upon which the camshaft makes contact. The camshaft lobe moves the lifter upwards, which moves the ...
