Default Crane Cams

Crane Cams is now back in business as most everyone knows, and just recently they have cam grinding production again. They have recently recieved LSX cores and are now starting to grind LSX cams again. They will be grinding most of there LSX cams using there HR5 and LSHS series lobes, but will do HR1/2/3/4/6 and HIR series, and solid roller stuff also. Custom grinds are also available. There website is back up and running to. There are still alot of things to iron out and dial in, but they will be back up to FULL steam and developing more great LSX cams and products in do time. Just thought I would share the info. If anyone has any questions or cam ideas, pm if youd like.

Thanks, Joe
