Ready for -S cams
I'm about to get this sweet deal for a "pair of CL-S cams"(A-x.com member) to throw in my '99TL (neatly installed/tuned)
BUT, i dont really know what to do, how many cams i need (2 right?), if i'm capable of installing myself (definetly not tuning) or if i should take to this Mech who knows all about it BUT will charge me over $300 for sure if not more?... I have a Vafc
I need help from the pros on this...please![Pup Eyes](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/pupeyes.gif)
the deal is also for an accord TB for CHEAP (58mm) i'd get a 64mm type-S one but the ones i get i resell because i need the money...for instance i got 3last month from an a-cler and got sold the week after...i made small money but i wanted one. Yes, it first...perfectly. J30->J32
peace.

What does installing Type-S cams require? Is it a straight drop in and go? If you replace the old ones with new Type-S cams, can our computers handle the adjustments or would it need to be professionally tuned?

i'm not too sure if i really want that 58mm TB or wait untill i find a 64mm one.
Can anyone give a detailed installation procedure so i can know if i should do this myself of have the mech do it?

Just for everyone's info, you can buy brand new cams from the dealer for $150 each. I was really curious so I called, beats buying cams for my CRX, they cost $300 ea.

Let someone who knows how to do it , do it. You may mess with your timing. And as for the TB, stay with the stock one, dont use an accord one. Go with a bored cl-s tb or a regular cl-s tb.
