Buddy Club or Omni Power Drivetrain components?
Ok I just want to get everyone's opinions. Which do you feel is a better buy Omni Power valves, dual valve springs and titanuim retainers for $429.99 or should I spend the $632.99 on Buddy Club head components. If you have any other better ideas please let me know what brand and where you can buy them online. Your help is appreciated, and happy tuning!!!

I'm not putting words in your mouth in any sense. So going buddy club or skunk2 your not getting any other benefits for your extra buck, just a better known name?

Personally, I don't like the Skunk stuff period. The Rocket or Omni stuff is FAR superior IMO, and most would agree with me.
The BC stuff is, as of yet, unproven so I can't really comment on it. If the quality is anything like the cams it should be very good, but probably not as good as Rocket's stuff.
IMO Rocket makes the best spring/retainer combo on the market.

Omnipower / Rocket Motorsports 
I would also choose Supertech valves
Buddyclub is unproven, but many ppl are running Omnipower / Rocket's valvetrain, I included

I like Omnipowers construction and design but they don't make headcompenents for Non-VTEC motors to my knowledge(which is nill right now). So crower gets my vote for Non-VTEC motors.

Is there a difference in rocket and omnipower. I see they both came out with valvetrain products about the same time?

He usually has Rocket stuff in stock as well. PM or email him about it. Nobody short of maybe Rocket himself has better prices on the RM stuff, and NOBODY can beat Mike's(Kteller) prices on Omnipower stuff.

i'm adding either portflow or alaniz components of choice to that list, depending on who i send my head to.
like someone said, buddy club valvetrain is new and unproven. but when you look at the overall product line, from their exhausts their suspension, they offer nicely constructed and finished products at a reasonable price. if something is used in the wrong application or installed correctly, it's going to break regardless if the valvetrain was stamped spoon, mugen, toda, jun, skunk2 or whatever name the box in came in.
does anyone know the specs on the bc springs and valves? (i.e. seat pressure, max lift, etc...)

Did you mean valvetrain components? Have the best of both worlds and go with the Omni Power USA valvetrain setup with the Buddy Club Spec 3+ Camshafts. This is the exact setup im running right now and have no problems. Runs really strong. We are having a sale on all of our buddy club products. Check out our online storefront. Thanks

I got the Rocket combo myself (valves, valve springs, retainers) no complaints, good guy as well. Hit up Tom @ camp1320.com for the best prices on RM parts.
