Default Is there anyway to put type-r cams in a b18b1?

Im not sure if this is even possible or not, but if i remember correct i read this in a forum once before. Is this possible? If so, would i just swap valve springs too? I hear these cams are just as good as crower. And i have a honda/acura performance magazine that says big cams are no good for turbo.


-god made turbo lag, so the v8's could catch up...

yeah u can use those cams, but it would be pointless because you dont have vtec..

get a vtec head, then use those cams, it would be more power

So i guess you are turboing? No need for such high lifting cams. Too much lift on the exhaust cam allow reversed exhaust flow back into the cylinder on a turboed header. Save your money and strengthen your bottom end or do watever you want.

No, you can't use VTEC cams on a non-VTEC head. You need the VTEC cylinder head to do this, which will wake your b18b up! Search for LS-VTEC or LS-V, or LS/VTEC. There are hundreds of threads on this.

my bad, thats why i asked. my bottom end is done. eagle rods, JE pistons, im just wondering what the best cams for turboing are? or should i just keep stock cams for the money and go with porting the head? im in the middle of getting my engine bored and stuff. Id just like to know of the best idea...
