I emailed crower and here's what was said.

Me: Do you sell the reground d17a cam shafts? Or would I have to send one in?

Crower: D17A2 SOHC VTEC?

If so, we will have new cams available in about 1 month. Figure about $350
per cam. Use with spring/retainer kit #84166.

If it's the non VTEC, no cores, regrind runs $100 + freight. You supply the
core.

Thanks for your interest in Crower,

Me: So... The cam for the D17A2 SOHC Vtec isn't a regrind? And how much
does the spring/retainter kit run?

Crower: Virgin, unground lobes...definitely not regrinds.

$302 for the kit.

very nice!

I'm sure n/a guys will definitely be interested.

coupled with the aem ems, rev limiter will be raised and I'm sure the cam will make power passed 7000 rpms

Rep Power: 361

Rep Power: 382

so the new cam is only for the d17a2 and the d17a1s only get regrinds?

I just asked him what the cam would do for the car, and what the specs vs. stock are.. stand by.

Rep points would be welcome! :-D

Guys guys, stop fighting please. The cams will be done once they are perfect from crower. Kezay will have the first sets ever made in his D17 and we will have them to test out locally for our shop.

Very nice info, since i want to do a Vtec head swap soonish. With no revlimit, cams and retainers. u can probably wind it easily to 8000 still making power, but our cars probably cant hold that high, id say 7000 sounds smart. MY b18a with Crower 403's made 11whp @7000 RPM, vs stock cams at 6500 RPM.( with i/h/e and advanced timing)

sorry if i made a dumb questions
but.. it works on autos too? i mean.... its better in m/t or in a/t...
what r the pos and neg points of change the cam???

 
Rep Power: 0

autos=Fagomatics lol but power is power wheather auto or manual cant wait till that cam drops

 
Rep Power: 265

Is that a stage 1 or stage 2 cam?

 
Rep Power: 0

This being the first cam availible for our cars.... its a stage 0 I'd say... It has nothing to compete with.

 
Rep Power: 0

so how do us non vtech guys go about this?

 
Rep Power: 0

non v-tec cam's are only a regrind right now... and they require sending out a oem cam to crower.
