Default Are these BLOX Type-B camshafts???

**UPDATE THESE ARE BLOX TYPE-A's**



Bought some Used cams today. Was told they were BLOX Type-B's. The intake cam has an X on one side and a 2 on the other in the middle of the cam. The exhaust only has an X in the middle. There is nothing written on the ends of the cams?? If anyone can help figure out what kind they are please let me know.










i just pulled out my Buddy club spec IV's compared it to my so called Blox B's and the vtec lobes on the BC are way fatter...both intake cams.
blox on the left and BC on the right. anybody have pics of the Blox b lobes??

My bro had a set of blox b's he bought bran new. He sold them a few months ago and when I pulled them out I remember seeing the x in the middle of them. I'm pretty sure those are them because the material looks the exact same as well.

Forgot to mention the ends were blank on his to, I'm positive because I remember checking for markings on them.

I have blox B's take pics of the ends of them and the complete cams, maybe I can give you a hand.

also if you can just use a micrometer and measure the journal and then measure the lobe and subtract the journal from that, should come out to .486 about on the vtec lobe on the intake cam.

Yep, B16 cams for the win. Ends dont look quite like normal, but with a vtec lobe the size of the secondary lobe they almost have to be.

The lobe difference on a b16 cams are greater than that meaning those cams run a big primary that are similiar in lift to the vtec. Take pics of the lobe to vtec lobe.(other direction on cam)

Here's a picture of my Blox Type-C cams. Blox usually marks all their cams with the corresponding letter in reference to the type of cam it is.
