Default skunk2 vs BC cams

hi, i know that skunk2 pro cams are proven but how far behind are the Brian Crower ones? the reason i ask is that they are nearly half the price of the sk2 ones,
engine is f20b / h22

"What?"

"Do joo want-a scheese?!"


Maybe SEARCH?!

Or maybe sit down and do some research to find out about camshaft design and how lift/duration affect the powerband of an engine and learn to answer your own questions.

We don't fill orders, here.

Ill say one thing..you get what you pay for in most cases. Skunk2 is tried and true. How many builds do you see with Skunk2 products. A million. Crower is not high demand for a reason.

Both are good products

More or less skunk2 really does well with the h series.

Jesus...you have no idea what you're talking about. "You get what you pay for." is an argument people usually make about the QUALITY of a given part. I challenge anyone to say that Skunk2 camshafts are of ANY higher quality than Brian Crower.

There's no reason for you to chime in with your worthless opinion.

BTW...the engine doesn't give 2 flying sh*ts WHO manufactured a given camshaft. It only cares how that given camshaft will operate the valves.

You think if I have a cam ground by a grinder that is of identical specs to a Skunk2 that the "original" Skunk2 cam will perform any better b/c you paid ~$700 for the pair over a pair of copies that can be ground for substantially less?

This thread is pointless....

Ok guy...here's the deal..lets not dirty this guy's thread with up with you putting other peoples' **** down. the guy asked if in fact Brian Crower's cams could keep up with Skunk2. I gave him an honest opinion. You DO in MOST cases get what you pay for. Read my earlier post. Thats EXACTLY what I said. The guy isnt asking to have cams ground with a grinder to Skunk2 specs for have the price etc. etc. How are you going to say this man's thread is pointless??? He obviously needs guidance with this issue we are here to help him, not say his threads pointless. Your posts insinuating that this thread is pointless, THATS POINTLESS. Get the **** on somewhere.

The point I was making in my first reply was that if he did his OWN research and learned the bare basics of how camshafts affect the running of an engine, he could deduce WHY certain cams perform better than others rather than asking if cam A was better than cam B and not knowing anything else about it. If you just accept someone saying that one cam is better than another w/o knowing WHY, you're an idiot.

The thread is pointless b/c the OP & 1st replier asked ignorant questions that show they have zero knowledge about the subject.

Go read...learn...try to understand. Put that work in, and THEN ask a question, and you'll happily get answers all day from board members.

Understood, and I like that answer much better. I totally agree with you. The search button is your best friend. I just made that comment somewhere else.
I know this sounds newbish, but who doesnt look at other people's builds and sees what works and what doesnt from them??? A lot of people buy product based on progress made from a board member with a successful build thread, its just how it is sometimes. He asked a question I gave him what I thought to be as close to correct of an answer as I could.

oem are the best cams you could get only problem is they dont make a came with high enough lift and duration to satisfy our power hunger lol but i like my skunk2 cams never messed with bc or crower so i wouldnt know about them. i say go with what ya know works just about everyone and they grandma has made decent power with skunk2 cams yes they are a lil pricey but they work
