most obx cams are direct copies of the skunk2 cam specs. I dont know if there made in the same factory but just the name obx makes me feel uneasy

What kind of warranty? Are they going to warranty the damage caused if a cam breaks? A lot of damage can be caused that they might not warranty. They might give you a new cam, but what good is that...

It might be useful to look up what material was used, the manufacturing process, etc.

they'll warranty the cams, but what are they going to do when they eat up your rockers?

don`t even worth a try.
they do have warn. on the cam but what happen if the cam break, valve stuck, piston hits valve then chew up valve then ---- up sleeve and piston then rod chew up crank then valve sticks up and ---- up your 1000 dollars head...and so on. lol
are they going to pay for all that ? NO
