Default B18B1 Cams in B18A1 Head?

I've read a topic about this before but can't find the thread. I just want to know what kinda gains should I expect to get. I have a pair or B18B1 cams layin around. Is there something else I must do in order to get more hp gains from those cams? Also, I'm not sure if these cams are reusable, or if I can get them refinished (don't know what term to use), so I'll be putting pictures up of the cams later on. Thanks for any info.

B18B cams are only a few degrees more aggresive, and I beleive the 92-93 B18A intake cam may even be more aggressive than the B18B counterpart.

Bottom line - dont put them in and expect anything. If you want power from cams, get a good set of crowers and be prepared for a shitty idle.
