Here is a good article about degreeing cams. good info on page 3 cam degreeing thread

Web Camshafts has instructions on their website.

that helps explain your "intake surging" effect doesnt it?

Just spoke with Bisi and based on my setup, I am now more confident that it can go to 9000 RPM. So I will be finding the potential of this camshaft, just have to fix my issues. Also, running Torco ZEP in my regular mineral oil until 3000 miles on this motor, switching to Torco SR-1 5W30 synthetic after that.

I personally know that 7500 is ok and my tuner assured me that he sees 8500 on the h23's they build with no problem. But they drag race theirs and I road race mineand is sees much more sustained throttle and revs in higher gears.

that is strange that he jumped straight to wot after tuning the idle.

Will degreeing the cam lead you to take out the engine ? B/C Im guessing it will take alot longer to dyno from now.

I have more room in my engine bay than a stock motor, since I removed some systems and simplified when installing this motor. I believe I can do it in the vehicle.

Regardless, it appears I will not redyno until early 2009 because I am currently focused on reverting my red Accord back to a stock motor.

Also, my wife and I should be closing on our new house first week of this November. That is exciting for the both of us, my white project will have a nice home in an insulated garage under a car cover. No worries, I will degree the cam in my new garage eventually and this motor will get dialed in right. I need to do this first to set my baseline before I proceed, if need be, with some enhancements that I have in mind. My goal is to have a fun all-around performance streetable F22 NA Accord on 93 octane gas that can occassionally handle some track time.

YES! Finally, the header looks amazing Cisco, you def. deserve the 1st one, I'm so glad those pics are up! Even more excited now!

So bisi never has problems with the teflon spacers possibly melting?

Not that I know of. Also, he is a chemical engineer, so you would think he applied his knowledge. Read the article below. The low coefficient of friction, chemical inertness and 500 deg F heat resistance, plays a factor in his choice of material I'm sure.

Something you may have not considered or thought of...but you can swap complete front crossmembers with a prelude and you'll have lots more room. It's also a bit stiffer.

No. Too much work already invested in my current setup. I have full poly bushing front-end suspension, which includes the radius rod bushings. This front cross member is cleared to work, all good. Simplicity my friend.

I really like how you clearly stated all the lack of tuning you were able to do so many times. lol.

I understand your motives and i think it worked. Tuning on a performance motor really is key.

My experience with tuning my gsx , was intresting with the lack of a dyno. All road testing and tuning for me. I was able to leane out my fuel supply and advance timing with no more than a 2 degree knock, and when i was finished i went from 278 whp to 394 whp. Just because i spent 9hrs tuning.
A later date and a few mods to the motor the power was able to go even higher. But with bolt ons alone you won't see the power a motor is capable of.
Long hours and mind boggeling tests really wake a motor up.
I personally feel you'll be close to 260 of peak hp once all the specs are dialed in. and thats just awsome.

Good work and application of your knowledge and experience to us!

looking good man, update with pictures when you can.

I did on first page, check it out. If you imply more, what type of photos?

FYI: Externally, the car is nothing special for now. I don't even have my rims on the car until this project is fully road-worthy. That's the plan.
