Skunk2 is the way to go but for the identical product as a cheaper option check out Blox Racing.

Man you have to use a Bisi level 3 cam, dual valve spings and oversize stainless intake & exhaust valves for sure!...................................

What engine are you planning on putting these parts in? What are your N/A (all motor) goals for it?

Your question is way to broad to answer. But to throw out a couple of names for you to research. I would say Bisi, KMS, Ferrea, F22parts (pricey). I don't think Skunk makes cams or internals for the F22 engines. There cam gear is OK but I would suggest Bisi over skunk2 in that department.

Sorry, I'm not going to be much help too you if your going with a boosted H. When you said "for all motor" I assumed that you meant naturally aspirated.

Have to wait until someone with some boosted H experience chimes in. Extralargenog would be the man to ask in that regard.

If your just brand name shopping then the three in those ebay listings are all good quality brands. After doing a bunch of research. I ended up buying a set of Darton MID sleeves and Wiseco pistons for my build.

Skunk2 pro series cams if its an H. I'd go Bisi cam on a SOHC; I had a Stage 2 VTEC cam on my F22B1 and it pulls alot stronger than a stock F22 VTEC. My buddie's F22 VTEC couldn't keep up on highway pulls.

does that stage 2 bisimoto cam have a lope to it? i've watched vids of them on youtube, but everyone thinks they need some gangster shitty music on so i can't hear the actual engine.

Im making 661 whp on only 28 PSI (T04ZR) over 700 whp on a 25 shot on stock JDM cams in my H... IF you buy cams.... Skunk2 pro 1s... Nothing else. But unless youre looking for north of 700 you dont need ****... In fact the exhaust ports are much more of an issue at that power level than are the cams... Would you make more with the S2s? Yes. Mid range and top end wouldnt fall off up top due to flow retrictions....


But be ready to adress other top end considerations... and when yoou do azlll that PAy attention to what people will tell you about lubricants. I had top end issues with rocker arm valvtrain components.... You need to run oils with high levels of Zinc dithiophosphate.... Mobile 1 is JUNK...

I moved to Royal purple and have had 0 issues since. Brad penn is another good alternative. As is amsoil, but when you get to that point hit me up and ill steer you towards some research material I found after NOONE copuld give me any REAL help with the issues I was having going after the power...

In short your money could be spent better elsewhere.

Golden Eagle sleeves are THE BEST PERIOD in my opinion and experience. CP pistons as well... Ive used this set twice now....


If you buy Darton sleeves Id have them iunstalled BY darton, or contact Benson... Id go GE though.... VERY happy with my block. I beat the SGIIIIIIT out of it.

The Idle on the stage 2 has a little bit of lope to it but its not really noticeable during daily driving

If you are going boost,Look in to the Bisimoto Level 1.2 camshaft and our Non-slip cam gear for your motor.

Here's a link to a dyno charts using the Lvl 1.2 cam
Level 1.2 F22 Non-Vtec Dyno's
