#22213, "What grind of Crane Cams"


          

I am getting the top and bottome end kit at howell sometime and I was wondering what grind of cams would probably be the best. I probably will eventually use nitrous so maybe the nitrous grind ones, but will I lose any low end power? what do you guys think would be best to get?

Before I had this car I had money.

I have Crane cams #16 and I am happy with them (NA) I did lose very little low end torque, but trust me, the gain you will get after 4K rpm or so is well worth it. if you are getting NOS then i would go with the NOS grind since they are half way between street and drag cams.

I am having the head ported and everything portmatched also so i might go with the #16 ones if they are that good. Does your engine lope at idle? I don't think a 4cyl can do that but everyone I talk to around here doesnt know for sure.

Are you saying you don't think a 4 cylender can lope at idle? I believe it can, maybe that's just me and my cams though. emoji


Here's a 1.5L SOHC VTEC 12.5:1 compression honda with nice lopping cams.

If anyone has GT3 get the Lotus Motorsport Elise and get an N/A kit, man that sounds sweet.

so do you think the nitrous cams would be good so when I am not on the bottle it is still a worthwhile performance increase..
