Default BLOX cams Type A or B on JDM ITR, need opinions and experience, pls !

i have searched and could not find any ITR motor using blox type a cams, or type b cams. i have sold my stock itr cams and is looking for an inexpensive set of aftermarket cams. i can either stay with stock valvetrain if i go with the type a or get supertech valvetrain if going with the type b.
so anyone using these setups, and what kind of numbers and gain i m looking to get.
if no one has similar setup, then are these cams good for stock itr motors or should i look into something else ?
it's a stock 97 jdm itr motor. inputs are very welcome. thanks.

I ran Blox Bs for a time on OMNI valves, springs and retainers
Made good power up top.
but if your getting cams on a budget and stock valve trane I would recommend Buddy club 3+

Blox cams are a great bang for the buck. Same as Skunk. I'm running Blox B's on my jdm type r motor making 221whp/142wtq SAE on a dynojet.

Yeah, except Blox didn't put the money into developing them like Skunk did.

search my name I believe the dyno charts are still up

Box cams had very little improvement over stock on the bottom while on the top they improved alot (192whp with 132trq)

The BC had a huge gains on bottom and decent on top(186whp with 136trq)

I think thats what the numbers were but dont hold me to it. If it was me I would do the BC again. The blox were fun but only if I was above 6K rpm while the BC were fun in the DD user power band (1500-7000rpm). BC 3+ felt faster all the time.

I would have done a ctr intake cam an a 4.785 FD....
depends on your style of driving... Save your cash and go K or boost. What do you want more power for? Highway/stoplight fun or road course?
