from the TURBOHONDA  dept.

You can see here the Oil cool mounted in the front of the car. The new Toda cams being installed into the head.

Nice Toda adjustable cam gears.

The head getting cleaned, cams installed and valves reseated etc...

Below the New Type-R "Lost Motion Assembly" that is needed for these big cams. The stock one is on the right and the Type-R "Lost Motion assembly" on the left. As you can see the type-R assembly is a lot larger on the top contact area. I also think the spring is heavier duty too. These are an absolute must for the the high lift, High RPM, Toda Spec B or C cams. There are little springs in each of these and it's job is to keep the big lobe rocker riding on the large v-tec lobe mainly when the v-tec big cam lobe is not in action (ie 0 RPM and ~5500RPM). But it does keep in contact in all RPM range. These are usually needed with Type-R cams too. But you can get away without using them. I did. But seeing as I was going even bigger than the Type-R cams, then I figured I needed them for sure. I needed 8 of them altogether. They are fairly expensive around $60 AUS. each.

Another view of the cam going in.
