i vote for blox cams.

everyone selling ITR cams are out of their minds. they over price them because they are "type-r".....meanwhile you are buying a used and most likely abused set of camshafts.

for a fraction of the price more you will get a NEW pair of blox cams which will make more power.

I just heard some bad things about the blox b's from evans. Now I'm not sure what I want to do now. I did see some great prices for those blox b's, but damn, do I want to take the chance? What numbers are you guys with the blox's getting?

I'd be happy with around 500 hp's on 93 octane. I think I could get more, but that's the ball park I'm pushing for.

What bad things have you heard about the Blox B cams? Just curious about that, we have sold and used the B's many times with no issues.

I have seen several sets of them crack at the keyway on the cams. I had a customers engine on the dyno have the cam gear shear off the cam (from the key way cracking and propagating), bend all the valves, take out the turbo, etc all in one shot running the blox b's. I know of others that have experienced the keyway cracking issues, its not isolated or installation error. This was awhile ago. Not sure if quality has improved or not, but after seeing the money my customer was out I was pretty turned off from them.
