Default Help identify these B series cams

I looked for pictures and found some identification, but not for these cams. Any help is appreciated. Sorry about the picture quality.

These cams appear to have 3 rings on the raised portion of the cam and one ring each on the end



This set looks similiar to an ITR set, with 2 rings on the raised portion, but does not have any rings on the very end.

pre00 itr cams have 1 ring on both cams
00+ itr cams and ctr cams have 2 rings on the intake cam

Use a caliper and find vtec lobe lift and then multiply by 1.55 and see what you get.

The second set lobe height is...

EX: 1.390" x 1.55 = 2.154"

IN: 1.450" x 1.55 = 2.247"

Ah you need to subtract the base circle of 1.160" to arrive at lobe lift.

So you now have:

EX: 0.230 x 1.55 = 0.356" or 9mm
In: 0.290 x 1.55 = 0.450 or 11.4mm

Hopes this helps you out sir.

Correction... second set intake is 1.404" - 1.160" = .244 x 1.55 = .378" or 9.6mm

Nope.

You can measure the base circle with your caliper. It's going to be the min measurement.
