340 for both?

They have gone for as low as 250 each.

I paid $400 for my CTR's. I think anywhere around 300-450
is pretty reasonable for R cams.

edit** For both I'd say $700-$800

Whether it is worth the $60 bux, I don't know? Some willl argue yes,
some will say no. At the time I bought mine, the ITR were going for
the same price, so for me it wasn't really a concern.

The 2000/2001 one ITR cams are the same as the CTR cams.
The 99 and below are a little less aggressive (not much).

Here are the specs:
2K+/CTR
Int-243 dur. / 11.5mm lift
Exh-235 dur. / 10.5mm lift

ITR through 1999
Int-240 dur. / 11.5mm lift
Exh-235 dur. / 10.5mm lift

I didn't. I have portflow inners, portflow retainers, and ITR outers

edit** You can use the stock internals if you don't raise the rev-limiter.

Thats kinda high for stock valvetrain isn't it . I can hear the pinging from here .j/p

In my car I have CTR I/E cams and my valvetrain is still stock I've had no problems ,but I don't rev past 7600-8000. . You'll be cool. But if you remove the rev limiter be careful not to miss shift.

I was thinking about keeping my stock si rev limit on and keeping my stock internals/ecu.....future vafc but not right away, xmas time most likely for the vafc...should I be fine?

I can get portflow inners(brand new) for 60 bones with my cams....should I get those?

how do these look:

they look kinda fucked up, but i assume thats just how they look when they get taken out

They look fine, they just have the assembly lube/lithium grease on them
