I just bought Crower stage 1 cams for my B16A 1st gen engine. After I installed it, do it to adjust the valve clearance according to stock B16A (Intake : 0.15 - 0.19 ; Exhaust : 0.17 - 0.21)? Or there are require different valve clearance? Also usually which one is better when setting the valve clearance, going for bigger number or smaller number? Thanks.

 

Help,anyone?....
Also do you think I need cam gears for these stage 1 cams? (I won't go bigger than stage 1 in the future).

 

The valve lash should remain the same regardless of what cams you put in there.

If you want to extract as much power out of the car and you plan on dyno tuning it, a cam gear set would be something good to have.

 

Thanks. Could anyone explain to me what this site talk about

What does it mean by lobe center?
I bought crower stage 1,so which one I should use the information on this site. Thanks.

 

Just as info. Crower stage 1 cams, intake : lift 11.38 duration 249@1mm ; exhaust : lift 10.54 duration 240@1mm.
