Brian Crower Cams

[davidvtec]

I've got a h-series motor and wanting to do some headwork while keeping the bottom end stock so i did some searches for a complete kit to buy as one and this was on ebay.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Brian-Crower-Stage-2-Cams-Valve-Springs-Ret-H22A1-H22A4-/290584824952?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item43a8348c78

I havnt found much info on how these cams work with honda motors but i wana see if anyones used these yet? and what are your reviews and thoughts on the brand.

My question is, has anyone used these for there dailly driven cars? and how long have they lasted in them for? and any stories on them.

Really paranoid about doing this setup cause have some say its good and some say its bad, and the fact that h-series aftermarket support is very limited


Cheers

Looks nice IMO, good value for a full valvetrain + shafts. No cam gears though, would need them too for tuning.

Brian Crower are very good products IMO.

[aznstyler]

How much differnce will cam gears make ?

[stndrd]

Have you looked into JUN parts for your H22?

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

Brian Crower gets my thumbs up.

[davidvtec]

Yeah cam gears i can get, there no big deal. But most importantly focusing on the camshafts and valvetrain. And since you guys vouch for BC, i'm convinced they'll do the job.

Jun camshafts are great also, ive looked into it. But seeing this package deal and price seems reasonable and tempting..

i know someone from hondatech he said no no for Bc cam, he got bc cam on his h22 and he switched to skunk pro2. so do i and i m going to find out

[dougie_504]

Why didn't he like the Brian Crower cams?

I would also like to know...

[dougie_504]

What I want to know principally is why he want from Brian Crower to Skunk2?

I don't know anything about the H22 products, but from my experience and hearsay Skunk2 does good B-series (same chronological period as B-series somewhat) but not so good K-series. However they're a decent brand, not elite products. More of a 'bang for buck' option. On the other hand I've heard fantastic things about Brian Crower.

[shepparton]

he said his bc stg2 killed his motor before, that's why he switched to skunk2, and some of these guy h22 with b box ran 11s and some low 12s wit just skp2 cam on stock block
thats the fact..

[Riced_Civic]

ive seen alot on the US forums say to stay away from Brian Cower cam shaft.

apparently they are bad quality.

[davidvtec]

Maybe its best to leave the engine unopened....

A h22b is quite a formidable setup even without a skunk2 camshaft.

I guess what I really want to know is how the Crower shaft killed the engine? Could you possibly find out for me? I'm genuinely curious.

Just had a good read on what Adrian thoughts on the cams from previous threads.

I guess the whole point is, at the end of the day, its the installer/mechanic who will define the engines performance and reliability.

If done right, works right (Y)

Exactly my implication! I doubt a BC shaft alone will kill an engine.
