I had them on my d16z6 a long time ago (before they made billet cams) And the cam was bad ***. I had a JG head, Bullfrog cam/ gears and I/H/E with AFC and I was whipping up on all DOHC's out there at that time. I can vouch for the SOHC but from what I hear the DOHC they grind are not too good.

CRV's are DOHC.

I would need some reasurence that their new stuff isn't total garbage like before and that they could actually get an order shipped to you before you forgot what it was.

I had a bullfrog cam as well in my D16Z6. I like the cam, it made great power on nitrous... (if you can say that a basic single cam motor can make power) but I would invest in a better set of gears or the ZC tranny first, it took me FOREVER to get through the gears in that car, hell you could do 130 in 4th gear, with fifth still to come. (my car never made the power to go faster though.) Make sure to get the chip for the car if you get the cam, you will suffer with stock redline

Ohh, and if you are on Spec B's? I would personally laugh at him if your stuff is running halfway decent... but it's all about the launch

I have the Bullfrog GSR cams. The primary lobes are untouched according to Bill (founder of Gude). The only problem i have with them is that they make just a bit more noise than the factory cams do. It almost sounds like the valves need a little adjusting right after you adjust the lash. This really make no sense to me becasue the primaries are "supposed to be" untouched. But it's not excessive in my opinion. I have not dynoed my setup yet but have not lost to anybody with similar mods. I am definatly beating other GSR's with similar setups, the closest races i had so far were with a Trans Am (RamAir, unknown mods) and an Eclipse Turbo with intercooler upgrade, blowoff valve, and fuel controller. i won both but their front bumpers were right beside my rear.

I have a B18C1, all stock unless noted here. DC Sports from header to bumber(no cat), adjustable cam gears +2/+2, Gude cams, AEM cold Air.

My impression of the cams overall is they rock. The motor totally gets off in V-TEC and it drives around town EXACTLY as it did when stock, including idle, and im still getting 32mpg's highway/city combo. Here is the specs from http://www.gude.com

Another thing i almost forgot to mention. I put these on before i had exhaust and they caused a noticable dip in torqu/power at V-TEC engagement. After i added the DC catback it totally illiminated this. Its just all go faster
