I am getting ready to throw in a set of cams in my ITR. Wondering what i should pick up at Acura this weekend to have and replace after we put in the new cams. I think there are seals on either side of both cams correct? I am not going to replace the valve cover seal. I already have a new timing belt to put in. I am having a buddy help me do the install. Anything you guys would reccomend replacing while i am in there to be on the safe side and have no leaks?

how many miles?

cam seals are nice and easy to do while the cams are out.

 

cam seals, hondabond, maybe some extra valve cover studs since those break rather easily.

maybe some oil to do a fresh oil change afterwards? just a suggestion

good luck

 

Deffently replace the cam lube bearing and the flux capacitor

 

I didn't replace anything and had no leaks. Hondabond is your friend.

 

Will~

the car has 41k miles on it. BTW, stock cams will be for sale

so cam seals..i will do an oil change at the same time, anything else? i will get some hondabond.

timing belt, cam seals, valve cover gasket, spark plug gaskets, water pump, valve cover gasket washers....
sure you can skip the above... but come on you wanna do it right, and save yourself some trouble in the future

 

Don't you mean lube the flux capacitor?

 

when you get done you can save the clock tower

 

88 mph rocks!

 

watch out for the libyans!!

 

this thread is Officially: toast

 

Run for it Marty!!

 

hahaha

 

I 44K miles i wouldn't bother replacing anything but the cam seals. Everything else should be fine. Just use a little hondabond and your set. Don't forget the valve adjustment

 

Damn, beat me to the valve adjustment, just be sure you have the right feeler gauge for the cams(ie different valve lash than stock most likley). Just take your time and youll be fine.

 

One last question, any reccomended break in period for these Skunk2 stage 1 cams?

 

Yeah, lets see if you bastards can do 90!
