Re: Which cams?

That cam spec for the S2000 is after the VTEC solenoids have activated...

Remember, VTEC cams are in a sense....2 cams in one.

Personally, HKS have always been the cams to have. But, people have found others that are just as good if not better and cheaper.

BC cams have been fairly recent additions and seem to be everyone's fav at the moment with great power, and nothing but good things to say.

Crower (Not Brian Crower aka BC) need to stick to making NA cams as they have no idea how to make power in a turbo DSM. Not to mention lots of bad things about them like breaking. Sorry, but NO new cam should break.

Web was pretty good until they had a bad batch go thru and everyone stopped using them. They are still a good company imo.

FP cams use specs similar to the HKS and Crower grinds but offer several tweaks to make them more 'streetable' or basically more choices to get a grind that more matches your build.


There are a few others like Reed and such. But...my vote is BC, FP or HKS and at least a 272 grind, with 280 as a recc. And anything over 264 grind you will need spring/retainer upgrade. Not from the revs or rpms...but the lift of the cams will cause stock springs to bind.
