Default Question about the same Figures but different vend

i want to get a new 224/224/112 Cam and am Torn between the Thuder Racing one and the Speed inc. one. IS there ANY difference between them what so ever? Quality? the TR costs a bit more so i am wondering what justifies the slightly higher price.

I can't make any comments about the cam that Speed Inc. is selling. However the lobes we use are proprietary to us. They are usually more agressive and offer more area under the curve than lobes such as the Comp XE's and such that have similar .050" duration and lift numbers. Also with every cam that you get from us we send a report from our Cam Pro Plus with the exact specs for your cam. Manufacturers do occaisonally ship cams that are out of spec or are mispackeged. With the additional step of in-house checking of the cams the likelyhood of receiving the wrong cam is reduced. Since we do this it does take extra time and we have to charge slightly more to cover our time.
