All right Darren, what's in the hopper this time?

Jim

Just to add to what Rob was discussing above about camshafts. We have Cam Doctored what has been "143" GM reproduction camshafts and they are different. We are talking about a lack of design and quality control in a nutshell.

Crane will not come back as they are in liquidation at this time. The thought of not being able to get the $130.00 to the door special that they once offered no longer is available. When you find something good we like to try keep it. That is why this thread was started.

I'm pretty sure I'll need one for my '69 L72 as I'll be doing a rebuild at some point.
