Default help identify cams!

i just bought these cams from a guy i know and he insists that they are NOT stock cams but i have no way to tell. i went to this site to try to identify them http://www.ff-squad.com/tech/temp/VtecCams.htm and the cams i have have the same rib pattern as the b17a cams. what im wondering is are there any aftermarket cams that use the same rib pattern? PLEASE HELP. thanks

do you have an actual picture of your cams? if not and they are the same as the b17a cams, well... you're SOL... and you're not the only one who's gotten ripped off. just ask me how i know.

take a pic at the end of the cams, there might be numbers, letters etched into it, any numbers or letters anywhere on the cams?

Host the pictures on image shack or one of those sites. get the direct link to the photo, and click the button that has a picture of a mountain with a sun/moon over it in the comment box, right next to the web link button.

no they are not 96+ gsr cams. i already compared to my gsr cams in my car and they are slightly different ring patterns. according to the website i listed im my original post they would be b17a gsr cams. but the guy i got them from INSISTS they are aftermarket cams but i dont think they are so im just gonna have him give me my money back!!

looks like my intake cam is 96+ gsr. but looks like exaust is the b17a. i read that whole post and couldnt find anything for the gsr exaust cam to compare to mine. but i think you are right at least about my intake cam.
