These may seem like noob questions (which they are), but I'm asking them to prove a point. So help me out! (reps to everyone that helps me )

Just say, you have a built LS/Vtec (with forge internals), C/R around 10.5, and the your head has the works (springs, retailers, ...., but no cams)


1) Are OEM cams (not including type r) better than aftermaket cams in that setup?

depends on the cams and motor i guess....i would think that most aftermarket cams are better than stock...but it depends on your situation

2) When building an N/A motor, are cams important? If so, why?

uh.... YES, they determine how the engine runs, basically.

3) Do you believe cams are a "waste of money" in a N/A motor?

if you want a ****ty motor

4) What aftermarket part do you believe is the best bang for your buck (power wise) when building your N/A motor?

cams or pistons

5) What is the point of raising your rev limiter (maybe about 1k) with stock cams? (if there isnt a reason, post that)

thats a good question.... i wouldnt though

6) Does increasing displacement only gain torque, or does it increase torque and horsepower?

definitely torque but it adds hp too....

7) Which motor "should" put out more power, a non-built b16 with bolt-ons or built ls/vtec with bolt-ons and stock cams. (this should be a easy one )

.....uh.... LS

LAST QUESTION!

8) A person with a built bottom end, N/A motor who think cams are a waste of money is a noob and should DIAF, YES or NO?

they will DIAF when their motor blows the **** up

Once again sorry for wasting your time with these elementary questions. There's a chump riding around that think he knows it all, but really doesn't know s hit, and this thread should prove him wrong (reps to everyone that helps )
