Default Crower Stage 3's with S-pistons?

I'm gonna order some stage 3's but I already have type-s pistons and a milled head .20 is this gonna be a probelm? And what kind of cam gear restrictions would I have? Should I just keep them set to 0in 0ex?

You can still daily drive the Crower stage 3 cams, it just gives you a different idle compared to stock, the difference is that the low cam and high cam profiles are modified to make power throughout the whole powerband. Guessing a ball park figure I would say your compression would be around 11.6-11.8 and to be sure for clerances get your motor clayed when it's apart.

to me if u arent going to go straight drag, then the stage 2 are good, since they do make around 20-25 hp. And the stage 3 makes a little more...but not that much where u want them for daily driving.

I think your guesstimate numbers seem a little to optimistic.

? I've been running a custom crower cam more aggressive than stage 3's daily driven and it is FINE.

Do you own stage 3 cams to make this statements?

i have crower stage 2 cams, there are two of them but i have the better of the two with skunk2 cam gears, they work really well but you will have to get titanium retainers and springs for ur Lude b/c if you hit a high RPM its going to do some bad damage to ur engine...so i got all that stuff done and its well worth it getting the retainers and all with the crowers...plus you need to get rid of that rev limiter to get more power out of your prelude
