Default help me with identifying these cams

heres a pic



my only guess is that they are b16 since the URL says so, but wtf.... why are all three cam lifts different?

I dont get this, usually the two outer cam lifts are the same, this one has three?

also. are they specifically JDM or not? any thoughts on the performance of these cams with respect to, lets say, gsr or ITR cams?

thanks

You need to understand how VTEC works if you are wondering why there are 3 cam lobes, with different profiles.

"help me with identifying these cams "
"my only guess is that they are b16 since the URL says so, but wtf" This threw me off a bit. . . . . . Perhaps you can get something from this and being able to identify something your trying to get information for is probably going to be your first step.http://asia.vtec.net/spfeature/vtecimpl/vtec1.html that video just explains the most common type of vtec you'll find. well, i guess depending where you live .... maybe i'm wrong?

i think im going to make a new thread. my question has changed so many times


Im wondering how vtec works with three different cam lobes?! do i need two vtec solenoids or something? these cams look like b16 cams, but b16 does not have ANY mention of 3 stage vtec..... I thought 3stage was a d15B thing?

ive handled cams many many times, and have never seen three stage cams on a DOHC motor......
