Blox type b tuned series cams

[xZachTheRipper8]

I have a similar build to this, but I have lsvtec with gsr head. im using p73-a0 pistons which are the usdm type r pistons I believe, I cant remember, but I also used my stock rods, I just had them shot peened and installed arp rod bolts and so far ive had no problems. the ls/b20 rods are weaker and tend to break under high rpms compared to the gsr or itr which can spin up to 9k rpms but if you install the rod bolts and have them shot peened you should be okay

Shot peeing is overrated and really not necessary.

Also, BloxB camshafts are recently coming up a lot breaking on people. I'd be weary on them.. I've had a few customers switch over to mine or other brands because they have some threads poping up about them breaking.. bad batch of cores I guess.

There are some reported cases of the Blox B cams breaking at the cam gear after relatively short periods of use. A few members of Honda Tech had this happen to them. Grenaded their fresh engines.

IMO these cams would be a nice choice for you build: http://www.crower.com/index.php/camshafts/acura-1-8-gsr-vtec-dohc-camshaft-price-per-pair-5565.html

They retain the factor idle lobes for streetability, but use the race lobes in VTEC. I have personal experience with the Crowers and I can honestly say they are quite nice for a build like yours.
