Omnipower

They don't have incredibly high seat pressure, so you do need to be careful not to run too big of a cam with them, or valve float may be an issue. On the flipside, your cams and valvetrain will last a lot longer than they would with stronger springs as there's less force pushing on everything.

What kind of compression are they supposed to make? Ive got a jdm b16a and im using civic type r pistons and itr camshafts, you have any idea what it might be with the omnipower setup? I just know that on the site it says they are flat on the end to increase comp. Thanks.

Omnipower is quality stuff, i have the flat faced valves in my ls vtec. Trust me, Steve would not put his name on something if it wasnt a quality product. Im pretty sure you will be happy with any of his products. good luck with your build.

Thanks guys, how high do they raise comp. ? How effective do you think the itr cams will be? Im trying to build a jdm b16a with stock reliability and gas economy with an increased powerband all the way across, so far this is what im doing= Complete rebuild with civic type r pistons and rings, stock rods, stock crank just balanced and polished, ported and polished head, itr cams with omnipower valvetrain, stock intake mani. w/ hondata gasket and Hondata s200. I don't really think ill need more fuel, what about you guys?

How do you think they'd do on a built 9:1 B16, stock cams, running about 16-18 psi?
