Default Cam gears showdown......

I am looking for a good set of cam gears. I was thinking of AEM cam gears. Please let me know if I should re-think the AEM's over again, and possibly tell me what kind of cam gears I should look into purchasing for my '97 B18B1.

Thanks, input much appreciated!!!

Fidanza!! 5 stud's to hold position, all machine work done on ONE machine (including indexing marks) so everything is dead on and keyway is machined, not broached. More precise.

Is it true that the AEM ones strip and are shitty because they only have three bolts?

well, if you torque them down properly, then you don't have much to worry about. But it's always nixer to have the extra bolts. Fidanzas are a good choice.

Yes.

Fidanza is no more expensive than say Crowers.

Skunk2 for good cheap gears.
