h22a cams

what is the best cams to get without having to change anything???

[BB6-SH]

crower stage 1 cams, jdm type-s cams. Those are the ones that i know of which don't need upgraded valvetrain. Or no tuning required although it would be best to get them tuned to get the most out of them

Any "stage 1" cam from most manufacturers will work. They usually give 12-15hp by the manufacturer's specs... about 5-7 short of the Stage 2 or 3 (depending on the manufacturer).

x2 what? I didn't say get a stage 2. I said the difference is 5-7hp, and stage 2 requires a valvetrain upgrade. I was saying quite the opposite.

then you'd might as well just pull the engine and do a straight up build.

custom billet cams all the way!

Well, Stage 1 cams are a good way to bump a little more power out of the engine. If they aren't used for too long, they can be resold for around 2/3 the cost at least, I'm sure. That means a $500 set of cams can be sold for like $350. Not bad if a full build is in the future.

if a full build is in the future, why even bother with stage 1. go stage 2 for a few extra pennies. the money that you would lose saling them can be spent on the rest of the valvetrain. so just do a lil more saving and do the whole valvetrain at once. especially if a shop does the install. pay them once, not twice.
