hello! this is a stupid question but i was wondering if i bought an itr motor, could i buy cams like TODA or another cam setup while running stock bottom end? I was wondering this because the stock bottom end of a itr is obviously better then all other b series. thanks in advance!

yes you could

but if you go with the spec B or spec C cams they REALLY want higher compression than even the ITR has
the ITR has 10.6:1 USDM and 11.1:1 JDM... both of those want 12:1 or higher
you can run them without upping the compression... but this is where you end up losing a lot of your mid range

good lookin' out!!

I tried looking at the articles and HS only has an article on non-vtec cams. I was wondering the difference between Spec A's - B? I don't wanna go C. gracias!
