Default What cams should i use

i am braking in my B18C with oversized CTR pistons and i know clearance is tight. i was wondering if there are any cams that might be alittle more aggressive then stock cams that i can use with this setup. Ive heard you cant or dont want to go anything bigger then stock type r cams but if anyone would like to put there info into the matter it would be awesome.. If possible i would like to run RM m22x cams thanks

Daniel

Is tuning going to be available? Are you willing to upgrade your VT? What intake/header/ are you going to be using? What is the car used for and your preffered powerband?

I say if you have tunning available pro 1's are awesome cams for comp ratio between 10.5 and 12.5. You should fall in that area. As said before, you will NEED to upgrade vavle train. As long as you have a pretty good intake manifold and header, you will be ready for some good power.

well i have stock valves and my head was milled to .060 or so and i just worried about the valve to piston clearance. ive been talking to clean rice alittle and i got the impresion im not going to be able to use any good cam because of the milling.

Not saying you can't, saying that nobody can give you a yes or no answer - which is what you're wanting. Buy a camshaft and clay it, that is the ONLY SAFE WAY to know for sure.
