CROWER cams for cheap!

wassup. well i was on www.honda-tech.com and i found this guy thats selling CROWER stuff for really cheap. i purchased a set of CROWER stage NON-Vtec Cams (part number 62403) from him for $339 shipped to my house. he sends out the order to crower and Crower sends the cams directly to you. i ordered the cams and got them in less than a week! very satisfied.

If u guys r interested, his AIM sn is Smoothgalant2 and his honda-tech sn is importcarpartsplus
check it out. i can vouch for him

i'll definately keep this in mind. i'll be needing some new cams here in the next month.

Hey Boosted.. What kind of mods do you have on your car. Is yours an LS/Vtec or factory. I have a black LS but I'm looking for ideas. I thought of the LS/Vtec, nitrous or just putting a turbo on my stock engine. I'm not sure what I want yet, so any feedback you can give me would be appreciated

He just said that he ordered a set of crower non-vtec cams, so I think you can use your head for this one :)

There is more potential in the VTEC head, both stock and ported. Doing an LS/VTEC setup will give you a good amount of power to begin with, and then when you get a bit tired of that you can put some new ARP studs and bolts in the motor, and turbocharge it for a LOT more power than you would make with a straight LS turbo. Or, you could also turbo it to begin with, and do the VTEC conversion later.

well right now im running an AEM cold air intake, TSUDO full cat back, TSUDO 4-1 header, MSD 6A ignition with blaster coil, just changed park plugs and wires to NGK, APEXI SAFC (untuned right now).

On thursday im gonna be Installing my cams and other goodies:
Crower 62403 Stage 2 cams, SKUNK2 adjustable cam gears, new timing belt and H2O pump.
in a couple of months i'll be upgrading the Transmisson to a B16 with an ACT 12 lb fly wheel and EXEDY stage 1 clutch.
then in the spring im gonna install a set of Type R pistons.
If i'm not hitting mid 14's in the 1/4 mile with these mods, im gonna spray a small 50 shot =) hopefully put n me in the 13's

let us know the difference in the cams.

Hey Boosted...have U Installed The Cams Yet? If So, How Did They Work For You.

i was supposed to install them on Thursday (8/26/04) at my friends shop. the shop was really busy, so we ended up working on other cars. tomorrow im gonna install them. I wont be able to tell u the difference right away cuz i have to break the cams in for a couple hundred miles. when i break them in i'll tell u how they feel vs stock

so cams have to be broken in? i can understand the engine. like the pistons and the bottom half but, the cams? i guess i learn something new everyday.:dunno:

Hey, how long did it take to get your cams. Did you get them from that guy in Va. If so, can I get his info. I'm going to go ahead and get a set now...............fISH

I paid the guy with a money order, sent out by USPS priority mail with delivery confirmation. i sent the payment out on a Tuesday and he recieved my payment that friday. he placed the order out to CROWER that same day and they shipped it to my house and i got it the following thursday. it took less than a week to reach my house from the time the guy recieved my payment. But if u live around California, then u'll probably get the cams faster cuz thats where the Crower warehouse is.
After i baught the cams, the guy said that crower increased the prices of their cams, so now u might have to pay a little more. im glad i ordered my cams when i did. if i had waited another week i would have paid a lil bit more.

hey B18LS, all of the gys information is at the top of this thread. go to the link for the hond-tech forum and u can check out more info about this guy. click on the 1st page of that thread on honda-tech. it has his phone #, address, website and more. u should instant message him and ask him some questions b4 u purchase from him. and when u do pay, make sure u IM him again and ask him to send the order out to crower. if ur persistent they will send it out faster =)


I went to my friends shop on saturday to do the cams. before trying to remove the valve springs from my engine, i practiced on a spare LS motor he had lying around in the shop. i had one of those conventional valve spring compressor's where u have to screw it from the top to compress the springs. i was able to remove and re-install all the springs on the exhaust side, but on the intake side i had some problems. the valve spring compressor couldnt fit to compress the spring. It's a good thing that i practiced on the spare engine b4 i worked on my own engine. i wouldnt have been able to remove the springs from the intake side. =)
so i have to get me one of those snap on valve spring compressor tools. so im gonna have to wait at least another week and a half in order to do my cams =/

the guy that i got my cams just emailed me. he said the cams will now cost $360 cuz CROWER just increased their prices

not too long ago i wanted to go ahead and clean up my valves and take them out. don't ask why i just felt like doing this one day? but i found the easiest way was to just go ahead and take off the head. and yea i had to put on a new head gasket but, i probably needed one anyway.
