I am PRETTY SURE CTR (B16B) cams are the most aggressive B series cams.

Any cam upgrade's pretty useless unless it's tuned. Just remember that.

That's OEM though, you can obviously get more aggressive cams aftermarket - all depending on how much you're willing to spend. It's like 500-1k for a set of good aftermarket ones like the VTEC killer cams.

depends....

seriously whats with these kinds of questions lately?

What do you want to do with the engine?
NA or turbo?
Do you want high lift or long duration? Both? How aggressive for each?
Be more specific.............by a lot....


Once again, Syndacate comes up with a useless answer.
CTR cams will not fit a b18b...since theyre vtec cams

Good luck getting CTRs in a stock LS

People have made good power with Crower 402s I think

I don't think Blox makes cams for LS's

My mistake. For some reason I didn't think about the LS being non-VTEC. Whoops. My bad.

@ OP:
Sorry, not thinking too well.
