IMO itr cams in a stock b16 isn't worth it at all....even with all of the bolt-ons its nothing special, definately not worth $350 plus the time it takes to install them.....just my opinion from my experiences though.

Are you talking about the valve springs on the exhaust manifold side

I had ctr cams on stock valvtrain in my ef b16a, without problems, for over a year, Best 400 I spent on the motor, defiently worth it, in my opinion.
