anyone with experience on crower stage 2 cams??? i know the older versions had a breaking problem but now the newer ones said that was solved already so i dont want to hear anything about them breaking down. if you have or had these cams installed let me know how they worked for you. dyno numbers w/ a mod list would help or just your experience on them in your car with would help. also what degree timing did you set them in?

these are my supporting mods:

jdm b16a motor stock 81mm bore
skunk2 intake manifold'
skunk2 cam gears
aem cold air intake
dc header (i know it sucks but have to pass CA visual legal test when cop pop my hood haha)

crower valves
crower retainers
crower valve springs
srp piston 11:1 cr
crower rods
micropolised and balanced b16 crank
oem head gasket
itr oil pump
walbro 255 fuel pump
2.25" piping to itr muffler
*everything else is all oem honda stock parts and will be tuned on crome

 

my friend had these in a built lsvtec turbo. they held up quite nice. but...
after a few months(not the cams) but the comp cam cromoly retainers...1 came apart
he was 2stepn at 9k rpm and launched then crunch! the retianer came apart and the valve dropd killd the rod, piston, chewed up the head, and crackd sleeves.
not sure if that is a cam thing or cus com cam cromoly retainers suk.
yes..it was a high load, he knows

 

i guess not alot of people ran these stage 2 cams???
