Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bonestock]

im buying a z6 head tomorrow and i was thinking about putting crower internals, aem camgear and a edlebrock intake manifold i want to put stage 1 cams on a stock block do u think it would run

if not give me some pointers please

[Hellhatch]

Stage one would run fine with no problems or tuning. Internals are you talking about crower springs and retainers?

[bonestock]

yeah the whole head is going to be crower cams,valves,valve spring,retainers what u think give me ur oppion for the record i have a 97 ek coupe that i want to do a step down

[Hellhatch]

Get the stage 2 cam. I have a stage 1 crower its a good drop in for a stock head. I'm in the process of beefing up the head for a stage 2. What kind of engine managment do you have for tuning?

[bonestock]

i havent bought anything yet ill probably use hondata

Thats fine you just need something to tune the stage 2 cam.

TRUTH !

It's been said that stg 1 are a waste of time. Stage 2 FTW!

that's not all true. if you just going for just an mild upgrade the stage 1. but as you stated you want to drop all crower springs, retainer, etc. you best bet is to a baller and drop that stage 2 in it. cause if you don't you will kick your self in the ass later on. lol.

[TREBLE]

if your beefing up everything in the head, why not the stage 3 if your going to mainly use it for racing...

[gimmezell]

do it once and get the stage 2.

[remoer]

doing a stage 3 is a bit, but a stage 2 would be good.

[s_18]

The stage 3 should be supported by high compression, a nice valve job, good header etc.
Stage 2 is better if you don't want to crack the block open, IMO.

I have a stage 1 comp cam and it works fine with a stock block.

If your going to all that expence for a head tuner like me, get it ported, I think it made a world of differance in power and it will even be better when I tune the ecu

:done:

yeah i just want to put it on a stock block cuz i dont want to put to much money into it and im not going to be racing im just doing this for my own pleasure i dont beat on my like that i just want something faster than my vtec-e motor u know if i leave the block stock is it ok to put stage 2 cams will i have future problems cuz if i do ill go with stage 1 cams

[boostdeliquent]

The stage 2 will work fine. If you want a cheap way to up the compression just have a few thousandths machined off the head before you do the mini-me.
