Newbie VTEC query

Having just entered the modern world from my cobra's smallblock Ford with a carb, I'd like to learn how variable cams (VTEC?) work. Does anyone have a link to a primer?
Thanks,

I guess that why he asked this question in "Other Car" forum...chill

Doug, this should answer your question. The MIVEC is similar system developed by Mitsubishi, which should be coming out at the same time at the early 90's
