Re: best cam for b18b??? (DaAznKigga)
Crower 62403s is the perfect cams for street set-up and you could use stock valvetain as long as you don't go over redline.
There are many other companys that make cams for the b18b platform.
Crane cams does for sure
do a search i am sure there is plenty of info out there on cams for the non-vtec motors
I personally like the Crower 62403s i had there in my car before when i had my LS with bolt ons and i loved them pulls real hard at low rpms from 3k it pulls all the way to 7k.

No they dont. Neither does skunk. Makers for ls cams are crower, crane, webb, JG, and cant think of anymore. Crowers are

I heard it's nothing too big, but nothing really is for the b18b.

Re: (5spdIntegra)
the turbo kit will take time for me to do. i am peicing the whole kit together so i wont be expecting it to be ready until next season to install. i i already have a juice kit coming in soon hopefully and that shuold hold me until boost but i just want power. thats why i am asking about if those cams are also used for turbo ir just a all motor application

I havent tuned it yet, but theres many others getting somewhere around 150whp and 125tq.

Re: (djay86)
I would at least get the Crower 404s.
I have drove a B18B with 403s, i/h/c/e, tuned, and with a GSR tranny and it was very nice. Nice broad powerband, especially for a honda engine which tends to be peaky.
The reason I say 404s, is the idle with the 403s was almost stock. I didn't notice any rough idle at all, very comfortable. If you can stand a little bit of loping, I say jump for the more aggressive cams and shoot for bigger gains.

Suprdragr:
"Best" cams for what? AutoX, drag, daily driver, road racer?????
daaznkigga:
Neither Skunk2 nor Jun make cams for the nonvtec
BunMetal_tegra:
You can use the oem valve train but its highly recommned that you use the crower valve springs. At the higher rpms you run the risk of coil bing or valve float if you over rev. If you say, "I never overrev", then be cheap, save $170, but don't be pissed when you have to tear down your whole engine because you revved a little to high now have a bent valve or two.
5speed:
I gained 20+ whp peak and 8-15 whp throughout the rpm range after tuning. I'm not really sure if that qualifies as "nothing really".
Dragboy:
The 62403 wouldn't be the best cam for turbo. I'd go with a the 62403t cam if you want to boost.

Re: (sixsk8)
It just means that you'll need to modify your ECU to help get the best gains. I recommend an SAFC at the very least if not a Hondata or other standalone.
The 404s idle pretty rough in the lower rpms, so you may have to increase the idle speed to 1000+ rpms to get something streetable.
