Default Something interesting i read today....

While i was bored today i was flipping through an old issue of honda tuning, and there was an article all about b series motors, the OEM performance stuff you could use with them etc. etc. Well one part that was of particular interest to me, since im putting in my CTR cams this tues. , was that they stated when installing 'R' cams, if youre going to upgrade valve-springs to 'R's to only do so on the exhaust side, reason being that USDM type r valve springs are actually wekaer than the other b series valvesprings (the dual ones) because the USDM r's valves are lighter. Very interesting... anyone have any real world info pertaining to this?


and before anyone asks, i posted this in multiple forums so that i could get some info quicker, and so more people could get some useful information out of this thread since not everyone browses every forum.

just curious, but do you believe everything you read in magazines?

and if what you say is actually true, then did you bother to ask why they would bother putting such an obvious "inferior" part in the motor?

youre user title fits you all too well, anyway.....

no i dont believe everything i read in magazines, hence the post on honda-tech asking people for their opinions.

Second of all, the R valve springs arent 'inferior' if used with their lighter valves.

to you and your shitty attitude.

grammar tech moderator has arrived i see.

i can take a peanut gallery crack, seems like you cant take a come-back.

The question wasnt if they were superior with the R valves, its if they were necessary for use the R cams.

I bet that girls voice comes all too natural doesnt it?

This would imply that the poster does not necessarily agree with the article and that he was looking for more info about it. I swear every post I see of yours, Captain assclown, is putting people down or attempting to make them feel like an ***. So I'm assumign you must think you're the all perfect being eh?
