Slant six single, to slant six double.

what's the theory for less exhaust duration compared to intake duration for the slant? seems counter to pretty much everything you see cam wise nowadays?
I believe he was thinking the intake flowed that well over the exhaust and the exhaust didn't need the extra help. But in testing, they found that those grinds didn't make any more appreciable power than a conventional design. They didn't make less either. At least that's what I've READ. If someone else knows more or something different, please post it.
