deltas are cheap



Crower cams for the win but you will actually spend money. Also ls valvetrain stock sucks *** and needs to be upgraded with any cam worth a dman even the deltas



In reality you will spend a couple extra hundred bucks on the crower stuff but you will get a cam designed around that motor that is tested


Delta hardly does RD on honda stuff. You still need valvetrain upgrades for the deltas regardless of what they tell you

so a set of stage 2 crowers with matching valvetrain will net a gain worthy of the money spent?

yea i was looking at there dyno sheet for the stage 2 street/strip cam. you get any specials or know who to go through to get a little better pricing than the 3+ for the cams and 3+ for the vlave spring combo?

i understand.. i had the extra money after buyingthe swap to buy a b16 or gsr head but i dont so im stuck with what i have.. i will be throwing a b18b intake mani on there with to help aid flow through the much smoother plenum but am looking for any cheaper way to make power and not take away from my zc build
