Getting Information
How To Determine Your Cruising RPM at 60 MPH
1. Hold a constant 60 MPH and check the tachometer, if so equipped. You can also hook up a test-type
tachometer, providing it has a sufficient RPM range.
2. Using the reference chart, locate your tire diameter (height) and rear end ratio, then read the RPM indicated.
How To Determine Your True Rear Axle Ratio

1. The actual ratio, or a reference code, will normally be found on either a tag attached to a bolt, or will be
actually stamped into the axle housing. Your car dealer can tell you how your vehicle is marked.
2. Raise both rear wheels of the vehicle, with the transmission in neutral. Make sure that you support the
vehicle with safety stands and block the front tires. Make a reference mark on the driveshaft and on the
housing. Next, without rotating them, make a mark on both of the tires and the fenderwells. With a friend
watching the driveshaft carefully, rotate both tires at the same time exactly one revolution. The number of
turns the driveshaft makes indicates the ratio, i.e.,: 3½ turns = 3.5 to 1; 2¾ turns = 2.75 to 1; etc. You an also
use the above procedure the next time you have your vehicle lubed at the service station.
3. Many vehicles are equipped with overdrive-type transmissions. If this occurs, you must multiply your rear
end ratio by the final transmission ratio. EXAMPLE: You have a 3.23 rear end ratio and a .85 high gear in the
transmission: 3.23 x .85 = 2.75 final drive ratio.
How To Determine Your Engine’s Compression Ratio

1. If your engine has stock-type pistons, and the original cylinder heads, you should be able to locate the
compression ratio by:
A. Checking your owner’s manual.
B. Checking a repair or service manual such as “Chiltons” or “Motors”.
C. Call your car dealer’s parts department with the engine description or serial number.
2. If your engine has non-stock pistons, refer to the piston manufacturer’s catalog.
NOTE: If the cylinder heads are not stock, check to see if they have the same size combustion chambers. If not,
refigure the compression ratio. Milling the block or heads also affects the compression ratio. Contact a Crane
Performance Consultant for additional information.

We offer hydraulic, retrofit hydraulic roller, mechanical,

and mechanical roller camshafts and components for
these engines. When installing our hydraulic roller
camshafts and retrofit lifters, machining will be required
on the block and cylinder heads to provide clearance
for the pushrods. This is due to the increased pushrod
seat height on the hydraulic roller lifters, changing the
angle of the pushrods. Our roller lifters are designed to
drop into the block, with no machining or lifter bore
sleeving required.
Street roller camshafts are also offered, with their superior

torque and horsepower potential popular among the
Hemi crowd.
Mechanical roller camshafts are available with

standard stepped journal diameters, 2.125” - BB suffix
journal diameters (with standard or SFO (1-8-7-3-6-5-
4-2) firing orders for standard 45 degree, or 48 degree
lifter bank angle blocks), and 60mm (2.362”) - 60J
suffix journal diameters (with standard or SFO firing
orders). These larger journal camshafts have a stepped
front journal, so that a standard timing set can be
used. The larger journal camshafts are machined for
3/8” – 24 bolts to attach the timing set, requiring
special shouldered bolts, and two 5/16” dowel pins are
installed. For increased oil distribution to the valve
train area, we can machine the oil groove in the fourth
camshaft bearing journal to a larger size. This can be
performed under labor number 98088.
While the standard valve stem diameter for these

engines is 5/16”, aftermarket heads are commonly set

To arrive at the correct valve train geometry for a mechanical roller
cam, the valve stem height must be checked. If the spring seats are
stock, a dimension of 2.075” to the tip of the valve must be
obtained. If the spring seats have been machined, then an alternate
method of measuring must be used. Make a gauge from a block of
material, by drilling an 11/32” perpendicular through hole. Insert
the gauge over the valve stem and hold the flat side against the

We offer complete lines of hydraulic, retrofit hydraulic roller,
mechanical, and roller lifter camshafts and components for
these engines. The carburized steel retrofit hydraulic roller
and street roller camshafts are equipped with a cast iron
distributor drive gear and rear journal. These are noted by an
IG suffix (Iron Gear), allowing the use of a standard type
distributor gear for long term reliability.
The same camshafts are applicable to nearly all of these
engines. One unique exception occurred in the 1973-74 455
Super Duty, which had an undersize distributor drive gear on
the camshaft, and an oversize gear on the distributor. A
standard configuration camshaft can be installed in these
engines, as long as a standard gear is also installed on the
distributor. We did produce some of the small gear camshafts
during that era, and they were designated by an “SD” suffix
after the grind number.
There was also a totally unique 1969 “Race Only” Ram Air V
engine with tunnel port heads that incorporated a different
valve layout, requiring a special camshaft. If you are fortunate
to have one of these rare engines, we can custom
manufacture a tool steel billet roller camshaft for it.

Cam Button Spacers

Engines without a cam thrust plate must use a cam button spacer when using a roller lifter camshaft to limit lateral
movement. Our unique needle bearing buttons reduce friction and deliver extra “free” horsepower. Crane solid aluminum
spacers are priced for the budget minded racer. Machining of the cam sprocket may be required for proper installation.

Distributor-Magneto Drive Gears
Copper Alloy (Aluminum/Bronze)
These drive gears are made from high silicon
copper alloy (“aluminum-bronze”) and precision
machined. They are required when using an
8620 steel billet cam.
Certain special Crane roller camshafts are

manufactured using an Iron Gear pressed
onto the steel billet cam. These special cams
DO NOT REQUIRE an aluminum bronze distributor
drive gear. Refer to the specific camshaft
application section of catalog. (Iron Gear cams’
part numbers have an “IG” suffix at the end of
their grind numbers)
Note: The ”Shaft Diameter” dimension referred

to is the portion of the distributor shaft, or
intermediate shaft, that the gear registers on.
It may be necessary to remove the original
gear to measure the shaft diameter correctly.

Coated Steel Distributor Gears
Crane Cams now offers precision machined, specially coated
and processed steel distributor gears for popular engines
using either cast flat faced lifter or steel roller camshafts. Since
roller lifter cams are made from either induction hardened steel
or carburized steel, neither of these materials are compatible with
the normal stock distributor gears. In the past, “bronze” distributor
gears were used. For street applications these gears can wear at
a high rate and may have to be replaced on a regular basis.
By using modern heat treating and manufacturing processes,

Crane Cams has developed a series of steel distributor gears
that are compatible with standard cast cams and induction
hardened and carburized steel roller cams. Crane Cams now
makes it possible to use a steel distributor gear that provides
OEM-style life-span, eliminating the need to frequently replace
bronze alloy gears. These Crane steel gears are available for
most popular engines for both stock and aftermarket distributors.
The use of these gears on camshafts that have been previously

run with other types or materials of gears, or the unnecessary
use of high volume/high pressure oil pumps, can be severely
detrimental to the life of the camshaft gear.
Note: The “Shaft Diameter” dimension referred to is the

portion of the distributor shaft, or intermediate shaft, that
the gear registers on. It may be necessary to remove the
original gear to measure the shaft diameter correctly.

Fuel Pump Pushrods
Crane’s heat treated tubular steel fuel pump pushrods for Chevrolet “small-block” and “big-block” V-8 engines are centerless
ground for concentricity. They are also much lighter than solid steel O.E. type pushrods, while maintaining the strength and
stiffness required for reliability in severe usage applications.
art number 11986-1 is for hydraulic and mechanical “cast” type camshafts. Both ends of this pushrod are steel tipped for best wear
P
characteristics for quality stock engine rebuilds!
Part number 11985-1 is specifically for use with 8620 and 9310 steel billet roller and slot hardfaced steel camshafts. One end
of the pushrod has a bronze tip to compatibly bear against the fuel pump eccentric on the camshaft, eliminating the wear
problems that occur when using a standard fuel pump pushrod (especially in endurance type applications).

Lifters - Hydraulic and Mechanical
“Anti-Pump Up” Performance Hydraulic Lifters
Hydraulic lifters compensate for changes occurring within the valve train. Crane Cams’
precision made “Anti-Pump Up” lifters allow the engine to reach its maximum RPM
potential (with the correct cam and components). The “bleed rate” of this lifter is
maintained by micro tolerances that prevent pump-up and limiting of full RPM potential.
After proper preload has been set, hydraulic lifters seldom need maintenance.
Maximum RPM Potential: 6,500 to 7,000 RPM.
Crane Cams performance hydraulic lifters offer pre-

cise oil metering and control. Our exclusive internal
valving prevents hydraulic lifter “pump-up” with
performance camshaft profiles, even at high RPM.
Hi Intensity Hydraulic Lifters

Crane Hi Intensity lifters produce a “variable duration effect.” At lower RPM this can
reduce running duration by 6° to 10° and decrease valve lift by .020” to .030”. Hi
Intensity lifters work best with a cam that requires more compression ratio than the
engine actually has. Hi Intensity lifters restore vacuum, cylinder pressure and bottom
end performance. As RPM increases, these lifters act more like a normal hydraulic lifter.
At 2500 to 3000 RPM they will transmit the full duration and lift of the cam.

train noise.
Mechanical (“Solid”) Lifters

Mechanical “solid” lifters should be used in applications when hydraulic cams would
surpass their maximum RPM potential. Mechanical lifters have no hydraulic mecha-
nism to pump-up. Theoretically, with the correct cam and engine components, a
mechanical lifter cam has an RPM potential of 8000 to 8500 RPM
echanical lifters are noisier than hydraulics. The engine must have an adjustable
M
valve train system. Valve lash must be set, periodically checked, and maintained.
(Can NOT be used on a hydraulic design cam.)
Crane mechanical lifters are precision machined

from finest quality alloyed materials to be metallur-
gically compatible with cam lobes.
Pushrod Seat Heights

The pushrod seat heights listed are measured from the bottom face of the lifter to the
bottom of the pushrod seat. The hydraulic lifters are measured without any preload.

Lifters - Hydraulic Roller
Hydraulic Roller
Crane hydraulic roller lifters are offered in two basic designs: Those for use with standard factory
alignment bars (on engines originally equipped with hydraulic roller lifters); and vertical locking bar
drop-in lifters (designed to retrofit engines not factory equipped with hydraulic roller lifters).
The Chevrolet standard alignment bar lifters are available in a normal dimensioned version, intended for
use with standard lobe lift and standard base circle diameter cams. When lobe lifts increase, and
base circle diameters decrease, our exclusive long body design lifters must be used to prevent the
lifters from dropping out of the factory alignment bars when on the base circle of the camshaft. This
would allow the lifters to rotate, causing severe engine damage. As these lifters are for engines
originally equipped with hydraulic roller lifters, special length pushrods are not usually required.
Our retrofit vertical locking bar lifters are available for non-hydraulic roller equipped engines.. They
can also be used in many applications to replace factory hydraulic roller lifters and alignment
mechanisms. No machining is normally required for the drop-in installation of these lifters, however
with differences in block castings and camshaft base circle diameters, care must be taken to insure that
neither the locking bar, or its attaching rivets, contact the block casting throughout their normal
cycles. If there is any interference, the block can usually be ground to provide the necessary clearance.
This should be checked prior to final engine assembly. When used in retrofit applications, special length
pushrods are required.
The retrofit vertical locking bar lifters are machined from 8620 steel billet, heat treated, and assembled
at our own facilities. Precision fit plunger assemblies are used to provide proper bleed-down rates,
permitting high RPM use in properly set-up engines. The additional inherent strength of the 8620
material also maintains greater stability in the lifter body, permitting more consistent operation in
very high spring pressure and high RPM applications, by keeping the plunger to body clearance
consistent throughout the operation range. Retrofit lifters also utilize our latest Monel pin and
retaining flange assembly to attach the guidebar, providing superior long term durability.

Lifters - Mechanical Roller
Mechanical Roller Lifters
Crane roller lifters are the standard by which all others are judged. From our first
horizontal locking bar version, with patented roller shield body, to our latest Ultra Pro Series
design, Crane has brought innovation and proven reliability to this critical compo-
nent. For maximum reliability, pressure-fed oil is routed to the roller wheel and bearings
on engines with this oiling system design. This is another Crane pioneered feature.
Another Crane innovation is our use of Bearing Focused Oiling. As many racing
engines do not have pressurized oil to the lifter bores, a method is needed to supply
oil to the bearing assemblies. This utilizes two passages in the lifter body adjacent to
the roller wheel, conducting the oil that is pressed out from between the roller and
the camshaft lobe to the roller bearings. There are no small passages that can clog,
and no engine oil pressure is sacrificed to provide this lubrication and cooling to the
needle bearings. Bearing, roller, and axle life is therefore extended by the benefits of
a continuous oil flow over these components.
ue to the proliferation of factory and aftermarket cylinder blocks (which may have
D
relocated camshaft locations, relocated oil galleries, changed lifter boss heights, lifter Horizontal Guide Bar — Crane Classic Design
bores of varied diameters and center-to-center distances, etc.), the manufacture and
selection of the proper roller lifter has also become more exacting. This listing includes most popular applications available
at the time of publication, but new items are being continuously released. We also offer custom roller lifters to suit specialized
block-camshaft-cylinder head combinations. Contact Crane’s Performance Consultants if you have any unique requirements.
ur Crane Classic design roller lifters are suitable for virtually all performance applications. Both the horizontal and vertical
O
locking bar versions are used throughout motorsports today. Our Ultra Pro-Series lifters feature maximized lifter bore contact
surfaces for less wear, weight removed from non-critical areas, increased body stiffness, and premium materials chosen
wherever necessary.
Upgrades to the Ultra Pro-Series lifters include carburized 8620 steel bodies, upgraded materials and metal processing for
VALVE TRAIN
the roller wheels, needle bearings, and axles. A new guidebar attachment system incorporates a retaining button in conjunction
with an aerospace quality Monel pin to provide superior clamping forces and resistance to wear. Extreme Spintron and
track testing has confirmed this configuration to be superior to anything else on the market today.
All machining, and assembly is performed at our own facilities, insuring absolute accuracy and total quality control. The
spring-loaded horizontal locking bar lifters have the unique feature of permitting cam changes without intake manifold
removal (providing a rev-kit is not used). Loosening the rocker arms and removing the pushrods allows the springs to pick
the lifters up away from the camshaft. The cam can then be removed and replaced in minimal time. This convenience is
especially helpful during dyno and on-track testing sessions.
We do not advise the use of oil restrictors with our roller lifters. Crane roller lifters are designed for use with normal oiling
systems. The needle bearings within are dependent on oil flow to provide lubrication and transfer of the heat generated by
today’s high valve spring pressures and increased rocker arm ratios. Particularly hard on these components are prolonged
periods of idling when oil flow is at a minimum but spring pressures are still high.
Whenever possible, standard pushrod seat height is maintained from the bottom of the wheel so that normal length pushrods
are used. In consideration of special geometry applications, the seat may be higher, or lower, than standard for best fit-
ment. These instances are noted in the application description where required. The pushrod socket radius is usually stock,
and any deviations are also noted in the application description.
Block machining is not normally required for the installation of these lifters (other than the lifter bore diameter options),
however with differences in block castings and camshaft base circle diameters, care must be taken to ensure that the lifter,
locking bar, and locking bar attaching rivets (where applicable), do not encounter any bind, or unwanted contact, throughout
their normal cycles. If there is any interference, the block can usually be ground to provide the necessary clearance. This
should be checked prior to final engine assembly.
276 CRANECAMS.COM
Mechanical Roller Lifters (continued)
e do not advise the use of offset pushrod seat roller lifters, when the pushrod
W
angle imparts rotational forces upon the lifter. Offset roller lifters are
acceptable for use when the pushrods are angled to the front or rear of the engine
(parallel to the camshaft). If the pushrods lean toward the left or right of the lifter
bores (as viewed from the front or rear of the engine), this will put severe loads on the
lifter guidebar and it’s attaching mechanism, which can lead to decreased reliability
and possible failure. When building a serious racing engine, it’s advisable to avoid
using offset lifters whenever possible. Offset lifters can also be responsible for
accelerated wear to the lifter bores, lifter bodies, roller wheel/bearings/axles, and cam
lobes. Plan ahead when choosing and preparing your cylinder block and heads, so you
can use centered lifters for best reliability.

Choose The Right Crane Roller Lifters for Your Application

Crane Classic Design or Ultra-Pro™ Roller Lifters?
With Crane Cams Ultra-Pro™ series of roller lifters, you might be wondering just which
series of lifters is right for your application. Listed below are some guidelines for mak-
ing the correct choice and getting “the best performance for your dollar”.
Crane Classic Design Crane roller lifters were developed when camshaft lobes were not
nearly as violent as today. They are ideal for street-rollers, many bracket-race type
applications and other racing uses where cam profiles aren’t as aggressive. Made of
carburized (heat treated) 8620 alloy steel, these rollers are capable of handling up to
240 lbs., of valve spring seat pressure in bracket race applications and up to 220
lbs., of seat pressure in endurance applications – providing the cam lobe profile is not
extremely violent. Open pressures exceeding 600 lbs., are not recommended for these
lifters. Crane Classic Design lifters feature high quality wheels and axles that “look alike”
lifters do not have. You’ll find that the materials, machining tolerances and overall quality
of Crane Classic Design roller lifters far exceeds lifters being sold for a lower price.
These roller lifters feature all the quality and durability you expect from a Crane Cams
product yet they are very economically priced.
Crane Ultra-Pro™ roller lifters are the ultimate in state-of-the-art, drop-in design
premium quality roller lifters! Empirical design and development techniques have
been used to eliminate any distortion effects of residual stresses resulting from the
heat treat process. Ultra-Pro™ roller lifters feature maximized strength; especially in
the axle support struts. This insures geometrically perfect tracking of the roller wheel.
Additionally, super-premium wheels, axles and bearings made from the finest grades of
alloy steels are used to conquer even the most violent cam lobe profiles currently
designed or anticipated for the next several years! These lifters represent the best
combination of lightweight, ultimate strength and reliability. They should be used
in all drag race applications with spring seat pressures in excess of 300 lbs., and open
pressures over 900 lbs. In addition, they should be used in any short-track circle or
endurance racing application where valve spring seat pressures exceed 250 lbs., and
open pressures exceed 700 lbs. Use Crane Cams Ultra-Pro™ series lifters when
absolute durability is necessary.
With Crane Cams Ultra-Pro™ roller lifters, engine builders can now be sure that they’re
using the absolute finest available, professional quality roller lifters for high-stress race
engine applications. Count on Crane Cams to give you a full selection of performance products with the best performance
for the buck and peace of mind for you.

Assembly Lube (Paste)

Crane Super Moly Lube is a moly-disulfide base lubricant, for use on cam lobes, lifters and distributor
drive gears and should be used for all cam installations (except for roller lifter applications).
Advised for cup-end pushrod installation where only splash lubricant is utilized.
lso used in many areas of transmission and driveline assembly, where high initial loading occurs,
A
and galling should be minimized. Not recommended where normal oil flow may be impeded due
to the high viscosity of this product.
Two 1-ounce packages 99002-1
1-pound container 99004-1
Engine Assembly Lube

Crane Engine Assembly Lube is specially formulated to provide extra lubrication protection to
engine components during assembly, and to provide outstanding resistance to scuffing, wear and
friction during critical break-in. This lubricant is recommended for use on several different engine
components, such as: rocker arm fulcrum balls, needle bearings, roller tips or rocker shafts; timing
chain sprockets and gears; roller lifters and roller camshafts; engine bearing surfaces; outer surface
of hydraulic or mechanical lifter bodies (use Super Moly Lube [paste] on face of these lifters).

Break-In Engine Oil

Crane Cams now offers a specially formulated 10W-40 conventional engine oil to cope with the
stresses created with flat faced follower camshafts. This is to ensure that the critical first hour of
your camshaft’s life will lead to long term reliability. A formula of advanced petroleum base, combined
with an additive package used in Crane Cams Super Lube, using a proportioned zinc (ZDDP)
component (such as contained in Crane Cams Super Lube), this oil is intended for use with all
conventional fuel types, with no additional oil additives required. Once your flat faced lifter camshaft is
properly broken in, you should continue to use a performance type ZDDP content oil for the
remainder of the engine’s life, to ensure longevity.
It’s more important than ever to use the properly formulated oil for the initial break-in of your flat
faced follower camshaft and lifters, either hydraulic or mechanical. Oils specified for today’s hydraulic
roller engines no longer contain the additives necessary to provide the optimum environment for
sliding surfaces, especially for cam lobe and lifter interface of a flat face follower design. Fresh
rebuilds also need load carrying protection in lifter bores, distributor gears and valve guides. Even
in roller lifter equipped engines, this break-in oil is highly recommended and this oil’s additive package is
mandatory for flat faced follower designs. Crane Cams Break-In Engine Oil (Part # 99300-1) or Crane
Cams Super Lube (Part # 99003-1) must be used when installing a new Flat Tappet Camshaft and Lifters.

Super Lube Break-In Concentrate For Cam & Lifter Installation

The original Crane Cams Super Lube Break-In Concentrate is an anti-wear additive formulated with a
high concentration of special zinc dithiophosphate to provide sustained protection against cam
lobe and flat-faced lifter scuffing and wear. This is especially important when using modern oils that
have been compounded for use with roller-type camshafts. This oil supplement is to be added to
the engine oil for the initial break-in period after the installation of a new camshaft and lifters.

Pushrods
The Strongest, Most Reliable Chromemoly Steel Pushrods Available!
Crane Cams offers precision manufactured
high strength tubular steel pushrods
for almost any engine. Popular length
and diameter pushrods are listed here.
The length is expressed as Effective
Length. On pushrods having a ball on
each end, this represents the overall
length of the pushrod. For pushrods
with a cup on one end, and a ball on the
other, this is the measurement from the
bottom of the cup to the tip of the ball.
Crane’s pushrods are manufactured from

4130 chromemoly steel tubing. The ball
radius ends are formed from the tubing,
and then hardened and centerless ground.
Where indicated, Crane’s pushrods are
carbonitride hardened for use with (or
without) pushrod guideplates.
Hardened pushrods must be used with steel pushrod guideplate equipped cylinder heads (page 291) to prevent premature
wear and failure.
Also listed in this section, where applicable, are the Crane Pro-Series One-Piece Pushrods. These are cold-forged, die
formed, heat treated and centerless ground pushrods for both small and big block Chevrolet V-8 engines and other engine
applications where pushrods with 5/16” dia. ball ends are required. For additional information, see page 289.

Crane Aluminum Rocker Arms
Crane Cams Aluminum Rocker Arms

More Horsepower, Torque And Response In An Easy Bolt-On!
Crane Cams first introduced the racing world to aluminum rockers in 1964, and since
then we’ve manufactured and sold more than seven million Crane aluminum rockers!
From the beginning, our famous Gold-Race™ aluminum rockers have been continually
enhanced with design and engineering improvements as well as materials upgrades.
Now many generations later, today’s Crane Classic, Energizer®, Gold-Race™, Pro
Series stud-mount, Gold-Race™ shaft-mount or all-new Quick-Lift™ rockers are
absolutely the strongest, most ratio-accurate, most durable aluminum rockers made!
rane aluminum rockers are preferred by professional racing engine builders and offer
C
outstanding power and performance advantages for street applications. An easy
“Saturday afternoon” installation project, bolting on a set of Crane aluminum rockers
can add from 15 up to 30+ horsepower (with increased ratios), plus increase throttle
response in a street performance engine. Crane aluminum rockers are so strong, durable
and reliable that Ford Motor Company® selected our Crane Energizer® needle-bearing
fulcrum, full-roller rockers for their Cobra V-8 production line engines. To further
demonstrate their reliability, they carried the full Ford factory warranty coverage!
rane Cams offers aluminum rocker arms for nearly all American V-8 and V-6 engines
C
plus many inline four and six-cylinder applications. Stock, plus optional longer-than-
stock ratios, are offered for most engines. Some applications also provide offset pushrod
seats for use on aftermarket cylinder heads with non-stock port locations. All Crane
Cams aluminum rockers come complete with a set of our own positive locking adjusting
nuts, or adjusting screws, at no extra cost to you.

Rocker Arm Shim Kits
Rocker Arm Bridge Shim Kit
Crane’s Rocker Arm Bridge Shim Kit will correct for excessive hydraulic lifter preload on late
model American Motors V-8’s, and I-6’s, and Oldsmobile V-8’s with the bridge mounted
rocker arm assemblies. This kit will also work on the later model Pontiac 151 I-4’s with
shoulder bolt mounted rocker arms. Two different thickness shims are included to decrease
lifter preload by approximately .030”, .060” or .090” depending on the combination of
shims being used between the bridge and the cylinder head. Excessive preload may be
caused by a camshaft change, valve job, head resurfacing, etc. These shims can be a quick
and easy alternative to resorting to different length pushrods.

Rocker Arm Pedestal Shim Kit

Crane’s Rocker Arm Pedestal Shim Kit is for use on Ford engines utilizing non-adjustable
pedestal mounted rocker arms. The hydraulic lifters in these engines may have excessive
preload due to a camshaft change, valve job, head resurfacing, etc. To cure this problem,
without resorting to different pushrods, we offer this pedestal shim kit containing two
different thickness shims. These shims are placed between the rocker arm pedestal and the
cylinder head, and will reduce the preload by approximately .030”, .060”, or .090”. These will
fit the Ford V-8, 255-302, 302 H.O., 351W, 351C, 351M, 400, and 370-429-460 engines.

Needle Bearing Roller Fulcrum Conversion Kit

Crane Cams’ drop-in needle bearing fulcrum conversion kit for Ford pedestal-mount rocker
arms enables you to retrofit standard non-adjustable rockers with fully rollerized fulcrum
assemblies. This eliminates the greatest source of friction in the rocker arm, resulting in less
wasted horsepower, lower oil temperatures, greater strength and load carrying abilities,
greater vacuum at a given RPM, and better fuel economy. This kit is intended for use with
hydraulic lifter and hydraulic roller camshaft applications only.
All hardware is included: New heat treated fulcrums; needle bearing assemblies and hardened
hold-down bolts. Pedestal shim kit also included to enable you to optimize hydraulic lifter
preload for best performance and reliability. No machining required.
These will fit all pedestal mount factory rocker arms for Ford V-8 engines: 77-00 255 and

Converts Pedestal-Mount Dodge and Ford Cylinder Heads to Adjustable
Rocker Arms
Crane Cams’ rocker arm stud/pushrod guideplate conversion kits enable you
to convert late-model Dodge and Ford V-8 engines with pedestal mount rocker
arms to an adjustable-type valve train without machine work or cylinder
head removal. These kits allow standard pushrods to be retained, in most
instances, as the guideplate uses a special composite insert that prevents
metal-to-metal contact. Each kit includes guideplates, guideplate inserts,
studs, stud installation nut, and complete instructions. (Rocker arms, adjusting
nuts, and pushrods are not included.) These kits are intended for mild performance
applications using hydraulic lifter or hydraulic roller cams, and are not
recommended for competition usage.

Rocker Arm Stud Conversion Kits
Rocker Arm Conversion Stud Kits for Big-Block Chevy Gen V & VI V-8, 454-502 cu.in. and 8.1 Litre V-8
Converts Non-Adjustable Chevrolet Gen V
& VI 454-502 and 8.1L V-8 Engines to
Adjustable Rocker Arms
Chevrolet’s 1991-00 Gen V and VI, 454-502
and 01-08 8.1 litre big-block V-8 engines
offer great performance potential but are
handicapped by their non-adjustable, self-
aligning rocker arms and valve train. In stock
form this system works great, but for
performance applications or any instance
where an aftermarket camshaft and valve
train are called for, the answer is “no way”!
ow Crane Cams offers an ingenious, simple,

N
easy and low-cost way to convert these
non-adjustable valve train engines to the
obvious performance advantages of high
strength, screw-in rocker studs, pushrod
guideplates, and die-formed steel rockers or
roller fulcrum, aluminum rocker arms.

These are unique rocker arm studs that
replace the stock studs without retapping,
machining or removal of the cylinder heads.

For the Gen V and VI, rocker arm stud kit 99152-16 is made
with a 3/8” diameter bottom thread that bolts directly into
the stock rocker bolt location. On top is a 7/16” threaded
VALVE TRAIN
stud end that allows you to install any adjustable Chevy

big-block rocker directly onto the stud. Factory pushrod
guideplates must be used to correctly align the pushrods.
You can use part no. 13634-16 heat treated pushrods or
3/8” diameter stock pushrods from any big-block Chevy V-8
equipped with adjustable rockers.
T he Crane 99152-16 “big-and-small” studs are not

recommended for use in competition applications, or with
valve spring open pressures over 480 lbs. For those applications
use 99157-16 7/16” x 7/16” studs (you must drill and re-tap
new threads in the heads) and 13650-1 guideplates.

For the 2001-08 8.1 litre engines, rocker arm stud kit 99155-16 incorporates a 10mm-1.5 bottom thread that bolts into the
stock rocker stand location. The 7/16”-20 top thread again allows you to use any adjustable Chevy big-block rocker. Our
26640-16 Pro Series one piece heavy wall heat treated pushrods are recommended for proper valve train geometry.

With Crane’s Adjustable Vacuum Advance Kits, the adjustment made through the vacuum
port of the cannister adjusts the rate of vacuum timing change as engine vacuum changes.
The Crane Vacuum Timing Limiter plate actually changes the amount of that vacuum
timing. This is especially helpful with applications such as high compression ratio
engines, heavy engine loads (such as very low numerical rear axle gearing) or heavy
vehicle weights such as motor homes, trucks with trailers, etc..
Each plate notch will shorten the amount of vacuum timing by 2°. It will also advance
the initial timing to 2° because of the change in the starting position of the breaker
plate or magnetic pick up.

profile. Spring A offers good performance over a wide RPM range at a lower total valve train cost (this assumes that the
heads were not machined for screw in studs). Spring B offers the possibility of somewhat improved performance beyond
6000 RPM. The vehicle owner needs to decide what he wants from his vehicle and what he wants to spend.
I n all-out racing, we frequently see the need for different springs on the same lobe profile depending on the anticipated
RPM range. Frequently, circle track racers will run two different tracks with the same engine but with different rear end
gearing. Often there can be as much as 500-700 RPM difference in the top end engine speed between the two tracks. It is
not uncommon to find that the car runs better on the track with the lower peak RPM using a spring with a lower seat pressure
and softer rate. At the track where the engine runs to the higher speed, the engine needs more seat pressure and a stiffer
spring rate. Every combination of engine, chassis, and track is different. Significant performance improvements can often
be achieved by experimenting with valve springs. If you aren’t paying attention to your springs, the guy winning most of
the races probably is!

Choosing Valve Springs
How to Select a Valve Spring
With the many choices of aftermarket cylinder heads, most with longer-than-stock length valves, the recommendation of a
specific spring for a specific cam is almost impossible. It is now necessary to select the spring that will best fit the cylinder
head configuration. We offer the following as general guidelines only:
1) “FLAT FACED LIFTER” cam/lifter applications (Street & Street/Strip) seat pressures
a. Small Block: 105-125# Seat Pressure

b. Big Block: 115-130# Seat Pressure (Note: Big Block applications need higher seat pressures due to their
larger, heavier valves.)
2) “FLAT FACED LIFTER” Open pressures should not exceed 330# open pressure (sustained after spring break-in
for acceptable cam and lifter life.
a. Open pressures should be a minimum of 220# for applications up to 4000 RPM.

b. For good performance above 4000, open pressures should be at least 260# with stock weight valves.
(Lightweight valves require less spring open pressure.)
c. Spring open pressures over 280# can cause pressed-in studs to come loose; therefore, we recommend
screw-in studs for open pressures above 280#.
3) HYDRAULIC ROLLER CAMS require higher spring seat pressures to control the heavier roller tappets and the more
aggressive opening and closing rates available to roller cam profiles.
a. Small Block applications: 120-145# seat pressure

b. Big Block applications: 130-165# seat pressure
4) HYDRAULIC ROLLER CAMS use higher open pressures to control the high vertical opening inertia of the heavier
roller followers.
VALVE TRAIN
a. Small Block applications need at least 260# for general driving applications up to 4000 RPM.
b. Moderate performance small block applications like 300-360# open.
c. Serious small block applications can tolerate 400-425#* open pressures and still expect reasonable
valve train life when top quality springs, pushrods, and lubricants are used.
d. Big Block applications need at least 280# for general driving applications up to 4000 RPM.
e. Moderate performance big block applications like 325-375# open pressure.
f. Serious big block performance applications can tolerate 450#* open pressure and still expect
reasonable valve train life when top quality springs, pushrods, and lubricants are used.
*Note: Open pressures in excess of 360# require the use of roller tappet bodies made of billet steel. Crane hydraulic roller
and solid roller tappets are made from heat treated steel billet to withstand the stresses of high-performance use. Most
stock hydraulic roller tappet bodies are made of cast iron and cannot tolerate high spring loads.
5) MECHANICAL ROLLER CAM/LIFTER

Applications are generally for serious street/strip use and full competition. Most are not used in daily-drivers where
day-to-day reliability is stressed. Instead, most of these cams are intended for winning performance. These cams are
designed with very aggressive opening and closing rates. High seat pressures are necessary to keep the valves from
bouncing when they come back to the seat. In all cases, the valve action and spring pressures required mandate the
use of high-strength, one-piece valves. However, Crane does offer the SR-Series of Street Roller camshafts intended
for daily usage.
a. Seat Pressures are determined by valve/retainer weight, engine RPM and life expectancy of components
before replacement is required. Milder roller cams require 165# on the seat as an absolute minimum.
180-200# is common for most modest performance applications. 220-250# is common for most serious
sport categories and some circle track professional categories. Pro-Stock and Blown Alcohol/Fuel drag
applications use as much as 340-500# on the seat.
b. Open Pressures need to be high enough to control the valve train as the lifter goes over the nose of the cam.
Ideally, the minimum amount of open pressure to eliminate or minimize valve train separation is desired. Any
excess open pressure only contributes to pushrod flex, which can aggravate valve train separation. For serious
racing applications this can be determined only by experimentation and track testing. For general guidelines
we offer the following
i. Street/Strip performance with long cam/lifter life desirable, 350-450# open.
ii. Circle track and moderate bracket racing 450-600@ open.
iii. Serious drag racing and limited distance circle track racing 600# and more.

More Valve Train Questions

What is Valve Spring Coil Bind and how does it relate to Spring Travel and Valve Lift?
hen the valve spring is compressed until its coils touch one another and can travel no further, it is said to be in coil bind.
W
The catalog (pages 317–319) shows the approximate coil bind height for the various Crane Cams valve springs. To measure
this you must install the retainer in the valve spring, then compress the spring until it coil binds. Now measure from the
bottom side of the retainer to the bottom of the spring. This measurement is the coil bind height. (See Figure 1) This can
be done on the cylinder head with a spring compression tool in a bench vise, or in a professional valve spring tester.
sing Figure 1, subtract the coil bind height “B” from the valve spring installed height “A”. The difference “C” is the maximum
U
spring travel. The spring travel is usually at least .060” greater than the full lift of the valve. This safety margin of .060” (or
more) is necessary to avoid the dangers of coil bind and over-stressing the spring.

If coil bind occurs, the resulting mechanical interference will severely damage the camshaft and valve train components.

Valve Spring Retainers
Steel Valve Spring Retainers
STANDARD CONFIGURATION
Crane Cams’ steel valve spring retainers are precision manufactured from high quality bar
stock steel, heat treated for maximum strength and durability, and black oxided for corrosion
resistance. Crane steel retainers are made for 8mm, 5/16”, 11/32”, and 3/8” valve stem diameters
with 7° taper and are compatible with either Crane stamped steel or machined steel valve
stem locks. Retainers for 3/8” diameter valve stems will also accommodate Crane Multi Fit steel
locks (All locks sold separately. See pages 340–341). We additionally offer retainers designed
for specific engine applications.
MULTI FIT STYLE STEEL RETAINERS WITH 7° TAPER

T he Multi Fit style has the same basic tapered I.D. dimensions as a normal 7° steel retainer made for a 3/8” valve stem diameter,
and are manufactured from premium quality bar stock material. By using the special thick Multi Fit Valve Stem Locks, these
retainers can be used with either 5/16” or 11/32” valve stem diameters. By using Crane Cams’ 3/8” machined steel valve
locks, these same retainers will accommodate a 3/8” valve stem also. Locks are sold separately, see pages 340–341.
MULTI FIT STYLE STEEL RETAINERS WITH 10° TAPER

Our Multi Fit 10 degree retainers and locks differ from the conventional 10 degree items, as we use a smaller outside diameter
lock, enabling the retainer to have a greater cross section in the critical area separating the inner spring steps from the
tapered center hole. This provides superior strength and stability when compared to the competition, and these retainers
are designed for use only with our Multi Fit locks. Compatible locks are offered for 8mm, 5/16”, 11/32” and 3/8” valve stems
in standard square groove and bead groove configurations. Optional assembly height locks are also offered, see pages 340–341.
Titanium Valve Spring Retainers

VALVE TRAIN
The lighter your valve train components, the quicker the engine will rev. Titanium retainers are
40% lighter than steel. All Crane titanium retainers are machined from certified American-made
bar stock. Beware of the recent influx of inexpensive “titanium” retainers. These are probably
made of inferior imported material, and will not pass certification standards.
MULTI FIT STYLE TITANIUM RETAINERS WITH 7° TAPER

T he Multi Fit style has the same basic tapered I.D. dimensions as a normal 7° steel retainer
made for a 3/8” valve stem diameter, and are manufactured from premium quality bar stock
material. By using the special thick Multi Fit Valve Stem Locks, these retainers can be used with
either 5/16” or 11/32” valve stem diameters. By using Crane Cams’ 3/8” machined steel valve locks,
these same retainers will accommodate a 3/8” valve stem also. Locks are sold separately, see pages 340–341.
POSI-STOP™ DESIGN TITANIUM RETAINERS WITH 7° TAPER

bsolutely The Strongest Titanium Retainer/Lock System Available! Proven In Competition
A
By Nationally-Known Pro Stock, Top Fuel, Funny Car, And Short-Track Race Teams!
Crane Cams’ Posi-Stop titanium retainers feature the patented stepped design that reinforces
the bottom of the retainer. This both significantly increases the integral strength of the
retainer, and eliminates the valve lock’s ability to pull through the bottom of the retainer.
“Posi-Stop” retainers are made for 5/16”, 11/32”, or 3/8” valve stem diameters with 7° taper, and
come with matching Crane machined valve stem locks.
MULTI FIT STYLE TITANIUM RETAINERS WITH 10° TAPER

Our Multi Fit 10 degree retainers and locks differ from the conventional 10 degree items, as we use a smaller outside diameter
lock, enabling the retainer to have a greater cross section in the critical area separating the inner spring steps from the
tapered center hole. This provides superior strength and stability when compared to the competition, and these retainers
are designed for use only with our Multi Fit locks. Compatible locks are offered for 8mm, 5/16”, 11/32” and 3/8” valve stems
in standard square groove and bead groove configurations. Optional assembly height locks are also offered, see pages 340–341.
CONVENTIONAL DESIGN TITANIUM RETAINERS WITH 10° TAPER

ur conventional 10 degree titanium retainers are made from premium quality titanium alloy bar stock that is precisely
O
machined on our own automated equipment. Each retainer is carefully quality control inspected for precision and accuracy.
These retainers are available in the popular conventional 10° design, for strength and light weight. Locks are sold separately,
see pages 340–341.

Valve Spring Retainers
How to Use the Valve Spring Retainer Dimension, Retainer Height, and Spring to Retainer Charts
The following pages supply you with specific information on the various valve spring retainers, valve stem locks, and their
compatibility with the valve springs that Crane Cams offers. These parts can be used anywhere their physical size can be
accommodated, and where the resulting spring tension and spring travel is compatible with the camshaft, rocker arms,
and lifters. Different combinations of valve springs, retainers and/or locks can be selected to match your particular needs.
SPRING RETAINER DIMENSIONS

Spring Retainer Dimensions are provided so you can determine how the retainer fits the valve springs, see pages 330-331.
Retainer Dimension ”A” fits over the outer spring;
Retainer Dimension “B” fits into the I.D. of the outer spring;
Retainer Dimension “C” fits into the I.D. of the innermost spring.
RETAINER HEIGHT CHART

Crane presents a new simplified method of matching the proper valve spring retainers and valve stem locks to your
required assembly height. Simply measure your cylinder head from the spring seat to the top of the valve stem lock
groove on the valve, and compare that to your needed assembly height. The chart indicates the relative heights for all of
our retainer and standard height lock combinations, from the outer spring step to the top of the lock groove. No fixtures
or sample parts are required, just the ability to measure! You can also take advantage of our wide range of +.050” and
-.050” height locks to further refine your choices. This way you can minimize the shims required to achieve proper heights
and pressures, and provide a more stable platform for your valve springs. See pages 332–334.
SPRING TO RETAINER CHART

This chart shows what retainers are available to fit a particular part number valve spring. It is based on the diameter of the
spring and matching diameter of the retainers. It is further broken down by valve stem size, then the material and design
of the retainer, see pages 335–337.

our Multi-Fit titanium retainers by 25%. Also, many competing 10 degree locks vary in production from
9° to 11-1/2°. Because of the accurate, robust design of Crane locks, they are incompatible with most competitors
10° retainers, and competitor’s locks won’t work with Crane Multi Fit 10° retainers.

Valve Spring Retainer Height Chart
Retainer Height Chart
To be able to achieve the proper valve spring height, while using the minimum amount of valve spring shims, can be
challenging when working with applications that use other than stock components. There has never been an industry
standard to compare the relationship of retainer heights with each other, although we have previously listed our retainer
heights by comparing them with each other. This has been somewhat helpful if you have at least one of our retainers on
hand for comparison purposes, but doesn’t properly address the variations of valve stem diameters, valve stem lock thick-
nesses, and taper angles.
ith this new listing, we are providing a measurable dimension that can be easily checked for the cylinder head and valve
W
combination you’re working with. No sample retainers or fixtures are needed. The Retainer Height dimensions listed indi-
cate the relationship of the outer step of the retainer that the outer valve spring sets against, with the top of the valve
stem lock groove in the valve stem.
I f the dimension on the chart is .000”, the outer retainer step, and the top of the lock groove are at the same height. If the
dimension is positive, such as .060”, then the outer retainer step is .060” above the top of the lock groove. If the dimension
is negative, such as -.040”, then the outer spring step is .040” below the top of the lock groove. Check the accompanying
drawings for a visual explanation.
T his will enable you to measure from the valve spring seat on the cylinder head, to the top of the lock groove in the valve,
then compare that dimension to your desired valve spring assembly height (see the Valve Spring Retainer Dimension
pages 330–331, and the Valve Spring to Retainer Cross Reference pages 335–337 for additional information). If you need an
assembly height that’s .060” higher than your measured dimension, check the listings for the applicable retainers for your
valve springs, and look for a height figure close to .060”.
T he standard height Crane Cams valve stem lock part numbers are listed with each diameter valve stem (where applicable)
to achieve these figures. Remember, most of our valve stem locks are also available in +.050” and -.050” heights (see pages
340–341), to extend the available height combinations that can be created.

The retainers are listed by material, then by lock configuration.
VALVE TRAIN

The valve stems are listed by diameter and lock groove configuration.

Certain unique specific retainers are listed using their usual valve locks, such as the Buick 11 degree, and the Ford Modular items.

We hope this will make choosing your components easier, and provide a more reliable valve spring retainer/valve stem
lock combination for your application.

Valve Spring and Retainer Kits
Crane Cams Valve Spring and Retainer Kits offer an easy, cost-
saving method of insuring that your performance camshaft
installation has the correct, matched valve springs and retainers
needed to deliver maximum performance. These springs are
designed to allow the increased RPM and more aggressive
valve train operation that allows a Crane performance cam
installation to “wake up” even stock engines. Crane steel and
titanium valve spring retainers are designed to correctly fit the
supplied Crane springs. The steel retainers are made from premi-
um quality steel, precisely machined and heat treat hardened for
strength, durability and wear resistance. The titanium retainers
are manufactured from certified American made bar stock. Best
of all, most of these Crane Valve Spring and Retainer Kits can be
easily installed with no cylinder head machining necessary.
pplications are available for popular I-4 and V-8 engines.

Valve Stem Locks
Machined Steel Locks 7° Single Groove Design
The ultimate in strength and wear resistance. These locks are machined from highest quality
alloy steel billet material using the finest automatic screw machines and then carefully heat
treated. Engineered specifically for today’s high engine speeds and high-tension valve springs.
These machined steel locks are the only locks to be used with our “Posi Lock” valve spring retainers.
Oxide finished for corrosion protection, and color coded for assembly height identification.

VALVE TRAIN
Our steel billet heat treated Multi-Fit locks feature an increased outside diameter for additional
strength, durability and fatigue resistance. These Multi-Fit locks are highly recommended for
any high RPM, high valve spring tension, or heavy valve application prone to lock distortion
and retainer pull-through. The 7° taper actually provides more clamping force than wider 10°
taper locks and are the preferred choice of professional engine builders and racers. (Use only
with Crane Multi-Fit retainers).

Valve Stem Locks
Multi-Fit Valve Stem Locks 7° Single Bead Design
Our steel billet heat treated Single Bead Multi-Fit locks provide all of the strength and durability advantages of our single
square groove design, and are compatible with most of the aftermarket bead lock valves currently available. Also available
in +.050” and -.050” assembly height versions for 5/16” and 11/32” valve stems, these are designed specifically for use with
only our Multi-Fit retainers.

Multi-Fit Valve Stem Locks 10° Single Groove Design

Crane 10 degree heat treated, fully machined steel billet, Multi-Fit locks were designed to allow the retainer to have an
increased cross-section in the critical area between the tapered hole for the locks and the valve spring steps. Having great-
er retainer integrity will now provide a more stable platform for the valve springs, reducing retainer breakage and the possibility
of the locks separating from the valve stem under adverse operating conditions. Many competing 10 degree locks vary in
production from 9 deg to 11-1/2 degree. Because of the accurate, robust design of Crane locks, they are incompatible with
most competitors 10 degree retainers, and competitor’s locks won’t work with Crane Multi-Fit 10 degree retainers.

Machined Steel Locks 10° Conventional Single Groove Design

Many engine builders are used to a conventional 10° taper, and these machined steel locks are perfect for any racing application
where the conventional 10° design is specified. (Use only w/ 99630, 99631, 99632, 99633, 99634, 99638, 99639, or 99640
Crane retainers or competitors’ conventional 10° retainers). Locks are recessed for lash cap clearance.

Valve Spring Locators and Cups

Crane shatters the myth that “all spring seats are the same”. Our new spring cups (those that
contain the O.D. of the valve springs) and locators (that locate the I.D. of the valve springs)
incorporate tapered vertical surfaces to eliminate the spring chafing that can quickly deteriorate
and lead to premature failure and breakage of the most expensive valve springs. And when valve
springs break, the damage is usually catastrophic. These heat-treated steel billet items are
advised for applications ranging from street performance to professional racing. Available for
specific applications, and most popular dimensioned valve springs. Don’t chance your engine
to an ordinary “spring seat”.

Crane Cams’ Quick Lock Valve Train stabilizers are a unique approach to
the now common use of stud girdles for racing engine applications. Most
importantly, the Crane Quick-Lock unit slashes the time required for
removal and replacement of the stabilizer unit to a fraction of the time
other units require. Crane VTS bars are made from finest quality aluminum
bar stock, machined to precise blueprint specifications and attractively
gold anodized for corrosion resistance. Each Crane VTS comes complete
with all necessary hardware including heat treated steel rocker arm
adjusting nuts. They are easily installed and require no cylinder head
machining or modifications for installation.
(CAUTION: Added height of the Crane VTS requires the use of

The above illustrates an easy method for identifying some of the most popular Crane camshafts. To use this, you must first
view the end of the camshaft. (Some Crane and Cam Dynamics cams for thrustplate equipped engines are marked on the
opposite end of that shown here.) Make note of the two digit engine prefix code number, the series name, and the grind
number.
For example, the two cams listed above would be:
A Engine Code – 11 B Engine Code – 44

Series – Energizer Part Number – 444122
Grind Number – 272 H10 Grind Number – 2030
(Part Number – 10005)

NOTE: There are many more camshafts made by Crane Cams than are shown in this catalog. If you cannot find your
particular cam, write down all the information (on “both” ends of the camshaft) and contact one of our Performance
Consultants. Fax or write us: Crane Cams, 1830 Holsonback Drive, Daytona Beach, FL 32117, Fax 386-236-9983.

hard plastic carrying case.
1. A degree wheel, such as Crane Cams part no. 99162-1.
You can also use a professional fully degreed damper
or hub, or install degree tape to your stock damper.
Be sure to get the tape that matches the diameter of
the damper. Use whatever will give you accurate
markings for 360°.

A Simple Explanation of Cam Degreeing

In simple terms, the degreeing process can be thought
of as using a dial indicator and degree wheel as tools to
map out one revolution around the cam lobe. You will
start on the base circle of the lobe where there is no lift.
(See Figure 6) Then by rotating the engine you will
move up the opening side, go over the top of the lobe,
then move down the closing side, finishing back on the
base circle. The dial indicator will move from zero, up to
maximum lobe lift, then back to zero during this revolu- STARTING ON MOVING ARRIVING AT

side and again on the closing side of the lobe. These

readings will then be compared to the specification
card to see how close you are. If necessary, corrections
can be made to put the camshaft in the exact position.

return to the base circle of the lobe. The dial indicator
must read zero again to be sure the process was
correctly done.
4. You now have the two important readings from the

degree wheel, both taken when the dial indicator
read .050”. One reading as the indicator was ascending
on the opening side, the other when it was descending
on the closing side. Compare these numbers to those
on your camshaft inspection card to verify the position
of the intake lobe.
The camshaft specification card provides much
information, but the numbers you are most interested
in for the degreeing of the cam are at the bottom of
the card. In the box identified as “Cam timing at .050”
Tappet Lift”. (Just a reminder, the word tappet and
lifter mean the same thing. This can also be expressed
as .050” lifter rise.) Inside this box are the degree read-
ings that the degree wheel would show for the intake

get larger, since you are opening it more degrees
BEFORE Top Dead Center. Retarding the cam will make
this number smaller.
The average of the intake lobe centerline and the exhaust

lobe centerline should equal your lobe separation.
The cam timing figures (as measured at a specific lobe

lift: .004”, .020”, .050”, etc.) may show the maximum lift
point to be distorted when you’re dealing with non-
symmetrical camshaft lobes (the opening side has a dif-
ferent shape than the closing side). If you split the
difference between the opening and closing figures at
.020” or .050” lobe lift, this figure will not coincide with
the actual maximum lift point of the lobe. There are
instances where a non-symmetrical intake lobe is paired
with a symmetrical exhaust lobe (or vice-versa), or lobes
with varying amounts of non-symmetry may be used as
intake and exhaust. We believe that where the opening
and closing events actually occur are the most important
figures to pay attention to when degreeing your camshaft.
Just finding the maximum lift points doesn’t really tell
you anything about the camshaft, or it’s even the correct
camshaft! By documenting the opening and closing
numbers as you tune, you will gain more knowledge as
to what actually helps or hinders your performance.
This is also a good time to emphasize keeping track of
your cranking compression whenever you change valve
lash, cam timing, rocker arm ratio, and especially when
changing camshafts.
