1.8 N.A. build up! what kinda cams????
i was wondering what kind of cams i should run. here is some info on my build on the bottom end.
b18c5:
Toda 82mm pistons est of 12:6:1 (advertised for my motor on toda webpage)
stock "R" rods
eagle 29lb std. crank
all oem seals, gaskets and bearings ( might have to get thicker head gasket but have to clay the head 1st)
i am currently getting my head ported by a local honda builder/ head porter.
the port job is a stage 3 w/ 5 angle valve job. i plan on using my stock valves. which im sure will work just fine! but i really need help on finding the right cams. i have looked into the crower stg. 2 and 3's. but am not sure how great these cams are hence the post for some help! i really am not looking to spend a alot of money im more on a budget. i just dont want to get cams that are too much for my build. i would like to find some that are decent on bottom end and pull hard up top!
thatnks for the help!!!! if you need anymore info on the build inorder to help me out just let me know i will try to give all the spec need to find the right cams! also if you can point me in the direction of some good valve springs and retianers.

I like the Skunk Pro 1's and Toda C's. Some people swear by Rocket's cams, but I have no firsthand experience with them.
Portflow is my spring/retainer provider of choice.

Highly agreed...your choice of cam will partially be determined by the type of use the engine will see in its life.

M22x with RM gen 2 springs and retainers, can't go wrong with them. What header and engine management are you gonna run? Do you know who's gonna tune it yet? How many miles are on the head? If there are a bunch, something like this could happen

my head has 47,186 miles when i tore it down as did my motor. i really want it to be a street car/ fun track car. i have a hondata s200 to tune it also. i am still looking into header options any help would be apreciated! this is my first build up so any help like i said is greatly apreciated.
