Default Crane or Skunk2?

What do you guys reccomend more between cams, Crane or Skunk2? I was originally thinking Skunk2 Stage 1's or 2's for my DOHC, but I've noticed Crane is also pretty popular, and it seems to be cheaper when you search in the right places, too.
And if you have any other reccomendations, go ahead and add them to the list.

The only people I hear of using Crane cams are the non-VTEC engines. Of the two, i reccomend Skunk2 stage 2.

Skunk2 is probably what I would choose between the 2 choices listed.

Personally I like Toda B too.

Crane does not make bad cams. The BIG problem with Crane is that so few people use their import cams that nobody really knows how well they might work in their motors. And the people at Crane can't seem to help you either. The fact is that their cams might be REALLY good. But few people want to take the chance with them when other cams with more proven results (ie Skunk2) are available.

Rocket will set you up with the right cams.
I wonder if Crane has better quality blanks that the other guys.
