why would it matter....what do you want 2hp for. just throw boost....then you can choose how much hp you gain....till your motor blows from too much psi

Re: (slambedcivic)
you can put it in there but it will suck ***. i had a mini me with a z6 head and a cam gesar and had it all adjusted properly. i heard the same thing that a y8 cam gear is a good cam swap for the z6 head. well to start the y8 cam has was ground on what appears to a 1.5 index. so after i installed and adjusted all the valves i had to correct the cam timing again and then reset the ignition timing. got everything going like it should be and took it for a ride around around the block. the cra made no power under vtec and evem when vtec cam on it stilll sucked ***. i turned right back around and went back to the shop and pulled it out. i fuigured it was a problem something like this....... the y8 has a btter lift and duration cam on paper. but the y8 head is a different height, the rocker arms have a different ratio etc. so the cam lobes must really affect when the valves open. so i guess that it was opening them out of time even though the cam gear and igntion timing was all set properly.
all in all it's a huge waste of your time, don't do it.
