I got a call-back this morning from Jegs that the '143' blueprinted Crane cam has been discontinued......for now at least..

I did some googling and called the few places that I could find. Every place is out of stock. Looks like I need to go with Comp.

Try Clevite. That's where mine came from. They do more than just berings.

Give the folks at Howards Cams a call. American made, high quality parts. I am pretty sure they will grind anything you need. A year or 2 ago anyway.

Looks like Crane Cams will be bought by Scorpion Performance a mfg. company based in Florida.
They're having a job fair on Thursday...there's been quite a bit of activity this week on the property.

Article in local paper: Crane article

Good news for sure...
