I've run cranes for 5 years, Drag only .680 lift roller , no problems so far.
My friend changed from this cam. to one with a little more duration and lift. 690 ? and he pealed a few off the shaft. He went to T&D s.
The cranes are a good rocker for the price.

Sure, they're 8.550 long, 5/16, .080 wall, one piece pushrods made by CV products and purchased from
Porter Racing Heads.

Crane Cams introduce its first aluminun rocker arm to the performance industry in 1964...
Since that time they produced more than one and a half million Crane aluminun rocker arm.
This statement was in 1986.
Today can be 2 millions.
I think they proved their reliability...
I used it since 20 years no problems

i used a set a while back. when 440 source first came out wittem. they were my customer's idea, and his engine so i used 'em under slight protest. they've got about two years of service on 'em with a mild flat tappet solid cam, aboot .600 lift, no probs yet. the shafts were filled with polishing compound, and i had to pull the plugs and clean them. what a mess!


for what is the good life if not doing things thoughtfully?

I just got a set of the PRW 1.6 iron rockers for a 496, they look nice! they're also available in 1.5 and 1.7 ratios, i was surprised to see that. their website has them listed for $399, when i called the rep told me the price was now $450 but he'd honor the web price, i thought that was damn decent. and just a few days ago i was installing them and broke one of the cup adjusters, a phone call and they're sending me some more for free. people on the pontiac forum have used prw rockers and like the brand so far.

Sometimes you can find Indy/Dove SR rockers pretty cheap in the race section...Seems I recall a used set of there...They can usually be had in the $300-$400 range. And work pretty well with about any typical "Big" solid flat tappet cams.
There was a set in the classifieds, but cant recall the details, or even if they were SR style...
Just a thought.
