Crane Cams were really easy to work with. After they had the cams, it took less than a week for fed-ex to ring my door bell. They ground my cams backwards at first, so they reground my stock exhaust cam and next day air'd it back. They'z good people.

depends if the coloring book is inline.

it does have larger nuts, but not turbo car nuts. makes for a nice powerband. even on 12 psi

my background stems from years of tinkering on various cars. also digging through the ****-tastic threads on here to find the valuable information. finding the right people who are willing to take an extra 5 mins out of their day to answer your dumb questions helps.


mainly knowing how an engine works, and having a working knowledge of how to tweak and twists things to get that bit of power out of the cars helps a lot.

The last time you checked them. You said on the 17th of April you were going to check them next weekend. I assume you meant the 19th-20th (sat-sun) of April. I was just curious on how they were looking and holding up
