Well, considering you don't see many questions regarding b17's, I figured I'd help him out. You don't really see too much info on them any more, considering there was only 2 years of production for that motor and they're getting harder and harder to come by. Awesome motor btw, taking a b16 block and stroking it to 1.7 for a little extra torque on the bottom end with b16-like high rpm capability.

good motor more reliable than the b16 in my appinion but it only has 160hp just like the b16 my brother has one with xsi head and cams really woke it up alot. the cams are the weak link

Well, the X-si head is just a normal b16 head with lower profile cams. The b17 gsr actually has a pretty steep cam profile to it...not far off from ITR sets when I measured them a few years ago. Only thing was the b17 has a slightly smaller lobe on the primary, probably for best idling and fuel economy on the stroked out 1.6 block. Seconday (vtec) lobe was actually a hair taller than the ITR cam, but with less duration. Either that or the guy who brought the ITR cams to us really had gsr cams in hand and I measured against them. Either way it was a decent profile.

xsi cams > gsr or b16 hand down, measured and re measured with a micro meter

Do you have the numbers on them? I'd be interested in comparing them to my friend's b17 cams just to see. My b16a was from an Integra X-Si, but from what I've measured so far his cams are larger, although I did start to pick up an extra couple by adjusting the cam gears and static timing at the same time.
