Who's Got That VTEC Cams Comparison Picture?
On the old FF Squad site Katman had a cams comparison page. It showed the various stock VTEC cams in comparison on the lobes, and more importantly, on the ends.
Basically you could identify the cams by looking at the "rings" on the ends, so does anyone have those pics?
I tried to find it, but I don't have my old shortcut to the old site anymore.
Anyone?
i'm trying to confirm/deny the claim of some CTR cams in a customers car while we're doing his head gasket.
TIA y0!

heres the link that i have.....hope it works!
http://ff-squad.com/VtecCams.htm
in case it doesnt work, heres a quote from the site:
Note:
• CTR & ITR cams both share the same exhaust cam.
• The 00/01 US ITR intake cam is a new addition. The markings are almost that of a CTR intake cam. I've checked the VTEC lobe and it's oh-so very close to the spec of a CTR cam. This cam has it's own spec, meaning it's not like like the 96-99 US ITR int. cam. This 00/01 cam will produce a tad bit more power than previous years...
• Honda of Japan is actually the maker of Spoon cams. Spoon has their own spec, which they give to Honda, and Honda manufactures them. That is why a Spoon cam material looks exactly like factory OEM Honda cam! This is unique, because you won't see TODA/JUN/ or even Mugen cams that look like OEM material.
• Toda cams are totally different than any of the 'R' cams. Notice how the secondary lobe has almost the same lift as the VTEC (middle) lobe...nutty! Once dynoed and dialed in, spec-B's produces some real good mid-range power. According to one of my friends, it makes a 1.6L engine almost feel like a 1.8L engine...

They are not CTR cams for sure.
Nothing on the Ff index has the cams I'm looking at.
Looking on the end of the intake cam, I see a smooth top section and one small indentation on the "ring" part.
nothing matches.
They don't list Del Sol VTEC cams nor do they list the 99-00 Si cams, so i'm thinking these are they y0!
They're not ITR - USDM or JDM of any year, any 1992-2001 GS-R, nor are they first-gen B16A cams as I suspected.
The motor is a first-gen B16a with a hydro tranny in a 1993 Cx hatch, so the cams have been changed.
Any ideas from the rings I've described?

Well damn!
They are not 92+B16A cams either according to the pic I just saw.

That's the closest thing, but the indentation is not as thick on this cam as in that picture.
