It shouldn't need to be as accurate as that. The base circle *should* exist
for a minimum of 180 degrees at the heel, and probably slightly more than
that. Which means that anywhere in that 180 degrees *should* give the same,
maximum clearance. But as individual cams will show, the greatest clearance
can exist over a much smaller rotational angle than that, and in any
position. It's that you need to find, on your cam, and adjust to.
