Thanks,

The difference in lift between the B18B and B20Z cams is so small that you wouldn't gain any useful power out of the swap if that's what you're thinking of doing.

- Tue Jan 05, 2010 7:41 pm #165996 I was thinking about swap'n them out. a friend of mine has a set of b20 cams laying around. but i don't see 0.3mm making that big of a diff.

Thanks guys

This statement is SOOOO beyond retardedly wrong.


There are many different variations on B20b, B20z and B18b cams. THen you have the B18a. Ive had three b18b heads and each one had different cams in it. I have a P8r head from a JDM b20 and it came with a completely different set.
