Everything I have touched for b series always gets ctr cams since it never seemed worth it watching all these very pricey builds going down the drain from cam failure.


Ill agree with the not on web forums builds. Some of the nastiest k series stuff will never be seen on the interwebs.

So when was the last time hands on people have seen crower cams fail? Obviously we have 2 cases here on the board.

I've only seen a Gude failure, but it was an older SOHC and the owner might have run it low on oil.  Travis Grimm broke an early set of Pro2's.  Never seen a Crower break outside of the forums... but I've never seen a Crower B-VTEC cam ever.   I have seen 20+ sets of Crower 402, 402T, 403, 404 as well as five Crower stage 2 turbo and a single Crower stage 2 NA.  All great cams.

ya i dont know, i was on my phone and never bothered to look at the thread dates

[hatchbox90]

no worries, I think those cams were a couple years old and were raped to shit also.  I think my cams came today but nobody was here to sign for them  or maybe a box full of ecus from jd

O wait, I take it back those things suck.  You better send them to me for proper disposal as they can contaminate everything the come in contact with.

[Teg2boo]

I have these: http://www.crower.com/cgi-bin/detail.cgi?prod_id=62402T-2

Pay shipping and they are yours. I don't want to be contaminated.

Yea i payed for it, too much IMO but i think it was worth it. Registered and all so i dont have to TRY to attempt or even bother, i get some people looking at me with the stink eye and then i get some older chineese guys that give me thumbs up. 

Reading a post the other day on ht about some guy wanting to do a conversion and people were making all sorts of retaqrded remarks.

Dump tube is geting re routed this weekend (caugh caugh) to exit out passanger tire area. Still need to get some part throttle stuff done because im rich as hell cruising.
