I wanna be sedated

Ok, so in order to truely find out how much I can adjust my cam gear before contacting the piston, I need to know the centerline degree.

Does anyone know the opening BTDC and closing ABDC degrees of a Civic Type R cam shaft intake and exhaust?

I have the formula to get it, but I need the numbers.
 
does this help?? or not what you are looking for.

Int-278 dur. / 11.5mm lift
Exh-280 dur. / 10.5mm lift

or you could just clay the motor!!!!! :D

Thanks for trying, I have those. I need the degree on the 360 at which the cam first contacts the valve, then the degree at which it loses contact. I don't want to take my motor apart, to clay it for only what is preobably going to end up being a 3 degree adjustment:P
 
is this a stock b16a with ctr cams and nothing has been decked or milled? if so, you're safe with any adjustments you'll be making. i went +3 degrees on my intake side with no problems. ctr's don't need much changing as far as cam timing goes, at least not enough to worry about piston/valve contact.
 
Yea, I know, but I want to be sure. I know they won't contact, but I am trying to learn something at the same time, so hey :)
