just like you and me....maybe we could purchase a NEW Crane piece or two for your race car, hauler, street car, or that side job you're doing...think we have to consider "BUYING with a CONSCIENCE" in the future! I know our personal budgets are a bit tight as well but MAYBE some of us could help? WOULD you rather see no Crane Cams? Just my .02 worth, and no, I'm not being paid to say this nor do I work there!
They have some lobe pro files that are very agressive up there with like Comp HXL lobes

I never did see them push the more agressive lobes for any engine like other cam companies because they know what they do to springs, rockers etc but if you wanted it they have the masters. Look through their master book

They have some very short seat & .050" duration with very high @.200" numbers

Crane .4467" lobe from the 1970's
308 @.020"
278 @.050"
200 @.200"
.183" tappet lift @ TDC

Comp HXL
307 @.020"
278 @.050"
201 @.200"
.175" tappet lift @ TDC

Not many of those .4467" lobes off the shelf. The split is 14/16 on the Intensity
