Rick B. Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 technically, any cam can rev up to 9k. ive never heard of a cam breaking by spinning too fast, other things fail before a cam will. it just depends on how well the engine will handle those speeds.

Kastigir Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Cams are a rod of metal, with very little rotational mass. The can rev to 12k without much trouble. Rockers, valves, lifters, rods, and cranks are what will break before cams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoulda_bought_a_honda Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 ok i get it...but what would be a better cam for say a gsr block with eagle rods and pistons b16 head??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick B. Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 honestly, it wont really make that much of a difference between an itr cam, and a ctr cam. they are both for high compression motors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick B. Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 in my opinion. you should go out and buy a set of skunk2 stage 1 cams. you will be happy with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastigir Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 in my opinion. you should go out and buy a set of skunk2 stage 1 cams. you will be happy with them. What are stage1s, .250 or so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
