Can stock 2ndt gen b16 valvetrain hold them?

How do they idle?

How will they preform over b17 cams on a poormans itr running 10.2:1 CR?

Or would some toda's or Jun's be better? My cams are killing it.

the skunk stage 2 cams will be overkill for you stock vavletrain.
and the cams will not preform to the full potential on that low a compression.
unless you wanna get new high compression pistons and a new valvetrain i would not suggest those cams.
i would go with something along the lines of civic type r cams.

You need at least 11:1:1 compression to see any results out of Stage II's. Ideally you would want close to 12:1:1. Get some itr/ctr and you'll be good to go. You could also run some stage I's and get a two layer head gasket to up the compression some. As long as you stay at factory redline you can run them on your stock valve train.

 

thanks alot.

 

how woulf those cams do on a jdm 11:1 itr motor?

 

Listen to those first two cats and what they said, they know what they are talking about. To good information. Skunk 2 stg.2's will need 12:1 to run to there potential. Even though they are "just" a "stage 2," they are very aggresive. With a compression around 11.1 I might suggest a skunk stg.1, CTR, BC 3's, something kinda mild like that. Ups to Jaymie and LSVtec....

do the buddy club 3s require different valvesprings?

 

yup

 

It's almost safe to say that if you plan on running anything bigger than a type r cam that you will need to run different springs, with the exception of a few. But you really should replace the springs, they really don't cost too much anyways..
