Re: D16Z6 camshafts
Really? How much horsepower do you actually think you'll make? Or is it just something you think you're supposed to do to gain power? These are econo-box engines that are pretty efficient from the factory for gas-mileage, not power. What kind of power do you think you'll get from a set of cams with no other supporting mods and no tune to take advantage of it?

I agree woth grumblemarc, it be cheaper just to swap.in a b series engine imo, a b18b full swap can be had for around 800, if not cheaper, youll have about 20 more horsepower and about 20 more ftlbs tourque stock.

Re: D16Z6 camshafts
I believe tuning is needed for a cam as well. Well, tuning should be needed at least. Making the investment not worth it that much more.
D16y8, crower stage 2 camshaft, bolt ons, and tuned on Hondata - car sounded good, but was slow as *****. I had this set-up maybe like 2-3 years ago.
