I was wondering if it would fine to put Integra Type R cam shafts in a Stock b16 head taking it out to 8,500? & would I have any problems? Thanks.

 

More than likely, your stock springs are pretty worn. I would go ahead and replace them while your tearing your head apart.

 

I have ITR camshafts on my b16 head and had to get new bearings for them to fit and move right.

 

New bearings??? He shouldn't have any problems, all BVTEC cams are inter-changeable.

True all B-series do interchange...but where do the bearings go to install the CAMS? Or was the other person confused with replacing the bearings for the CRANK?

 

for some reason my ITR camshafts wouldn't turn after putting them in. My bearings may have worn out or something, my b16 head is a 1st gen so that may also be a factor.

edit: bushings, not bearings.

There are no cam bearings on honda heads. Once the cam journals are gone, the head is junk...unless you want to pay big money to have someone weld, machine, and align the journals back to new.
