Whats the lift and duration of these cams.... i have some crower stage 2s... i want to go bigger... maybe a trade?

Dur @ .050 is 216/216 lift is 394/394 on a 112 lsa. What is it on the cs2's? Are they cs2's or bcs2's?

the crane 18s are in the middle of crower s2 and crower s3's

18's are bigger but only slightly....

To OP, I don't see them helping you but thats just my opinion. I think you need ported head and intake to really benefit from the 18's.

How much were you asking for them?

Blackbird1084 · 09-09-2009, 08:18 PM

$400 shipped but I stated many times that I was open to offers. What cams then would go best with my setup as I don't know how long it'll be before I'll be able to get a ported head.

I hope you meant crower stage 3's. The BC s3's are pretty much the same thing as you got. Not worth the change.

I am considering going with a borg warner turbo... but not made up my mind yet...

To the OP, 18's on a 20g wont help you any. They will be more of a hassle to put on than running them.

Sell them for what ever you can get out of them and buy a better turbo if you want to go faster. If your in the 20g range(45-55lbs) then buying a better turbo is the best choice at going faster.

Blackbird1084 · 09-10-2009, 11:07 AM

A turbo isn't gonna be as cheap as a set of cams. Also I'm just shooting for high 11's @120+ which I should be able to get with the 20g. I'm already traping 113's peddaling the crap out of it peaking 23psi and holding 20 to redline. I should reach my goal running 28 psi on race gas.
