I've had these laying around for like 15 years and now that my GTX needs some roller rockers these need to find a new home.

Fulcrum roller, roller tip, shaft mounted Cranes but I'll be damned if I can figure out what the heck they are. Help!!

ok i'm taking a guess here as i've seen Cranes like this on a set of W2 heads. i could be wrong & it's known to happen before but my best suggestion if you really want to know is ring Crane since they're back in bussiness.

Before they went out of business I tried them and they were no help, even though they're the manufacturer!! Maybe the new guys know more

the W2's i was looking at were a set of "chapman" prepped heads. they were second hand for sale stuff, not regular heads as they were oval port & came with a matching manifold. the seller had them apart & was pointing out that they were as good as HS due to the roller fulcrums. i didn't buy them due to the hefty price & this was 10-12 years back but they did look similar. are these the same ratio or are some 1.5's & the others 1.6's?

wouldn't W2's have a left and right offset for the intake's? or am I not seeing everything.

That's them! I remember now, I took them as partial payment of a debt that was owed to me for some headwork a LONG time ago. Thanks for the memory jolt!
