spend a little more and get some crower LS cams..............it would be well worth the effort.

even if the CRV cams have .3mm more lift you might get a whole .5hp from it.........big deal.

Base your descision depending on how cheap it is. Also, if you want performance cams, then don't even bother with getting those.

Not true.

B20Z cams are the same as B18B cams.

I hope you are not refering to this buy on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cg...264975&r=0&t=0

This guy, in my opinion, is trying to rip people of. Calling stock b20z cams racing cams for the ls is outrageous. There is no way these cams will add 14-20hp to the b18b.

I think the common rule is, if something isn't breaking it can still go faster

or something to that effect.
