non-vtec all motor dcr calculations
hey guys, Im at work and slacking off and I started reading about dynamic compression ratios. and from my very basic understanding is that by advancing the intake cam gear I can gain back some of my dcr lost by when I put in bigger cams.
heres my setup:
stock b18b1bottom end
ported b18a1 head with aftermarket valve train
gude performance cams "specs unknown *shakes head) bought head built as a top end package off ebay.
ported obd2 intake mani
jg eddlebrock header with smaller collector
stock integra exhaust with test pipe
unfortunatly I dont know anything on the cams I have. I will more then likely get crower 404's down the road when I do p30 pistons and arp rod bolts in my bottom end.
Id like to know if there is power to be gained by adjusting my cam gears and also if any one has recomendations on how I should adjust them (which way for intake and exhaust) I know that every motor is different and that theres no def answers but Id just like to get more of an Idea on what Im doing befor I dip into it.
thanks for any input -trevor

Re: non-vtec all motor dcr calculations
Id like to know if there is power to be gained by adjusting my cam gears (adjustable cam gears have always been shown to be an advantage when tuning cams and gaining more power from them, even stock cams) and also if any one has recomendations on how I should adjust them, which way for intake and exhaust (You adjust them according to what the motor likes, on a dyno). I know that every motor is different (correct, which is why you do this on a dyno) and that theres no def answers but Id just like to get more of an Idea on what Im doing befor I dip into it. (If you don't know what you're doing or how to do it, have a qualified tuner/shop do it for you).
