building the b16
im getting ready to build my b16a1, i was wondering if anybody had any suggestions on what kind of pistons to go with, im looking at doing 12:1 compression,
also i am open to suggestions on cams, im going to do springs and retainers, just looking for suggestions on a set of cams, i have heard dynamic spec v cams are nice and im wondering about obx,

i believe if you drop in a set of CTR pistons your c/r will be 11.6ish, so if you add in a thinner headgasket it should get you real close to 12:1.
i dunno about the rest of your stuff, but i hope this gives you a little help.

CTR Pistons and a 2 layer head gasket will get you up there. As for valvetrain, get something good like Crower or Ferrea. There are a lot of good cams out there, I recommend you do a search for a set of cams. I don't know about OBX cams, personally I wouldn't run anything OBX in my engine but its your call. If you're looking for budget cams just run CTRs.
