Default b16 cams

I got them for free JDM CRX, they are 1st gen B16A , are these any good ?

for example, tsx cams are good for my rsx

are these cams an upgrade to any other b16 series ?

Ok what JDM head are they from? PR3-???? and what head/camshafts/motor are they replacing. Or at least tell us the years this stuff is from/going into. It matters and changes things all around.

If they are from a JDM CRX, they are 1st gen B16A cams, typically considered the worst of the B-series VTEC cams. Personaly, I like the power band they produce, but to each their own.

They are good as a core for a regrind to custom specs....don't toss them...someone will buy them to get cams ground before taking their car apart.
