I read on another site that ZC cam gears where exchangable with B16 Cam gears.
true or false?

I need some for a zc motor so if u have the Zc or b16(if they fit) Ill buy

 

true i had them on my ZC

 

Thax man. Did they work great? with the same timing belt?

 

how are you gonna put vtec cams in a non vtec head?

 

**** man, i have some stock b16 cams if you want them just hit me up and make me an offer

 

Wow, i guess you really do learn something new everyday.

 

jg makes gears made for the zc so does jun but there not cheap.

 

Ok im an idiot...

BTW Guys, he is talking about CAM GEARS not CAMS. The B16 CAM GEARS will work but the timing marks will not line up properly.

 

So how do you go about installing them!

 

that seems like more trouble than it's worth.

whats the difference between b16 cam gears and aftermarket zc cam gears?

who said that?

 

i would assume that just bolting them on your ZC... i mean... that should be it. take the other gear off, put this one on and then set timing.

with the B-series gears installed, the timing belt will run on the inside edge of the gears like this:

 

lol yea its not a hemi! gor some of u guys that dont already know thats the zcspeed dragcar.

 

Did you use the same timing chain. Cause i spoke to the parts person and he says theirs two belts I can use either the 125 tooth or 129 tooth.
