Interesting man.

What kind of lift/duration would ideally be optimum? I know the R5 has crazy lift in it but is more lumpy (so I guess best left for those who don't mind your idle bobbing)

Once my car is fully operational again I was contemplating getting some work done and eventually getting a better cam/pistions/port and of course some of your solid lifters.  ;)

Ill fight you. May even throw a bar of soap your way. Maybe a few wax strips and some clip on brembo brake calipers for your fooly sic civic.

I have to run the numbers in the engine sim package i use and try a few different combos.

Believe it or not, cams with around 270ish intake/exhaust duration don't idle lumpy in KA's, it's when you get above 285ish and over that it idles cranky.

Pringles has a huge duration cam in his ca20, around 300 for intake and exhaust, from what i've heard it doesn't like cold mornings but never stops pulling hard when you get on it.

Don't let the opinions of the average man sway you. Dream, and he thinks you're crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you're lucky. Acquire wealth, and he thinks you're greedy. Pay no attention. He simply doesn't understand.

I think 400 is abit steep...

I'd pay an extra 100-200 and design my own and get him to make them.
