Default skunk2 vs blox

does skunk2 make more power or is better quality than blox or are we just paying for the looks and name? personally i like both brands but skunk2 is way more expensive.

don't start this now. theres 20 x a billlion threads about this. and it will turn into a blox is a copier of skunk2 and has no RandD, is a leech, should not be helped, quality is as good as you can make a copy. so on.

but. if your on a budget and really can't just WAIT til you have real money blox is ok.
otherwise skunk2s. and i don't even like skunk2. no problem with them they're a good company just not my thing.

p.s. OBX owns all their bass.

Im running the Blox Type C cams, and I have only one complaint. After calling them numerous times, I couldn't even get them to tell me where they had to be degree'd in. They had no idea, and kept telling me to put them to 0,0 on the cam gears. So I took my chances, without degreeing them and put the motor on the dyno. On a mild build LS/VTEC, I put down 212 whp.

But to answer you question, I think I would have made more power with Skunk2 Pro Series Cams. You get what you pay for, and I know for a fact I wouldn't have had to deal with the bullshit of finding the correct cam degree numbers.

Regardless of morals, this was my reason for not purchasing Blox cams and valvetrain like I planned.

Do you really wanna buy from a company that answer their tech questions with "uhhhh well.............."

Exactly my point. You live and you learn, I guess. For the money, they do give a good bang for your buck, but next time, I know I won't be going back.

For just a couple more dollars, I could have went with Comp, a brand thats been around forever and IIRC builds all their own stuff in-house, so there aren't any discrepancies.

If you want to support a company that developes new parts for us, buy skunk2, if you're cheap and don't give a **** about this industry, buy blox.
