Disclosed is an overhead rocker cam valve operating device for an internal combustion engine and which is particularly useful for race cars or high performance automobiles. The device includes a rocker cam and connecting fixed plate, the rocker cam arm being adjustable within a slot in the fixed plate to provide for more or less power. Hence, the rocker cam arm can be positioned closest to the cam lobe to provide for performance or speed, or can be positioned farther from the cam lobe to provide...

The present invention comprises an improved method of treatment of AIDS-associated non-Hodgkin's lymphoma by administering gallium nitrate in a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle.

Disclosed is an overhead rocker cam valve operating device for an internal combustion engine which is particularly useful for race cars or high performance automobiles. The device includes a rocker cam and connecting link, the link being adjustable within the rocker cam arm to provide for more of less power. Hence, the connecting link can be positioned closest to the cam lobe to provide for more power, performance and speed, or can be positioned farther from the cam lobe to provide for less powe...
