Zex cams are made by Comp Cams.

Comp Cams owns Zex.

Crower is a different company.

It's wonderful that some people are making power out of SOHC Honda motors, but the absolute domination of the DOHC engines over them makes it almost pointless to mod a D-series.

um yea that's for a regrind, not a new cam. It won't last very long, and yea you could have gotten that done last year. It's nothing recent.

then why did you ask about hp on a reground cam? someone just call them up and ask simple fix , but just an alternate question are they working on a cam for the D17A1?

Because he was unaware at the time he emailed Brian about the R&D going on with the completely new (not a regrind) cams (and I say cams - because he [Brian Crower] has stated that their will be more than one profile avail.) that they have been working on and will be releasing soon.

well obviously ive heard stage 1, 2, and 3 cams but still ive only heard it for the d17a2 as that was what they were given , i dont believe they were given a d17a1 to work with, so i believe we are out of luck?
