Which Cams are best for fully stock LS motor?
I have a crx with an LS swap and want to get more power out, so i've decided i'll install some cams and am gears but just want some feed back on what you guys think are the best cams for a fully stock LS motor from a 91' Integra.

for a stock LS, the crower 403 cams work well. 404s are too aggressive for a stock LS and would be rough for daily driving.

we have several LS cams. Our stage 2s are the most popular for pretty much basic setups, no major internal upgrades. With Bolt ons, they come out to about 145hp to the wheels.
our stage 3 LS cams do make a bit more and are what I would say street Aggressive. If you dont mind a lopy idle, this ones for you.
This stage is good with mild increase in compression to such as ITR and B16 pistons.
We also do a stage 4 LS cam but best with built bottom ends and headwork.

You SHOULD upgrade your valvetrain for peace of mind, but you don't have to if you will be keeping the stock redline. You could rev your LS as high as you wanted to, but the only way to do it safely, would be to upgrade your bottom end with stronger rods and pistons, but mainly stronger rod bolts.
If you don't plan on building the bottom end than just keep the stock redline. Hope this helps.
Also check my sig, I have a set of stage 2 crowers and cam gears im trying to get rid of.
