All Small Six Decode this cam profile?

[TucsonHooligan]

Got a crate of 65 200 parts off Marketplace and this Crane cam came in the bunch. Looks to be brand new, but the only info that came with it was on the end flap of the box with this into (see pic). I did a search and the model number seems to be defunct. The coding isn't familiar to me, but I understand duration and lift and lobe separation, so there are some familiarities to it, but can someone give me the full info on this? Not sure if it's a performance part or just the stock grind. Thanks!

Ill give it a go, looks to be 214degrees duration @0.050, 290degrees at lash, the other numbers are IMO only known to the maker. Those figures would make it a mild hydraulic cam, rpm range to about 5000rpm in a six. Will have some lope at idle. Definately considered a performance cam, about as much as you would want with an auto, it would need springs to match. Depends entirely on your application, with improved breathing and in a 4 speed manual, it would work nicely on the street. With a slushie, not so good.

Intake lobe .050” duration 214 degrees
Intake lobe lift .290”
LSA 112 degrees

Perfect. Thanks guys! PMuller9, where did you get the 112 lobe separation from out of all that?

The standard Lobe Separation calculator was published in the 1988 version of David Vizards Modifying Fords OHC Pinto engine.

If you go to Wallace Racing, check on this

Wallace Racing - Calculate Over Lap and Lobe Separation Angle

, and input the data.

Cranes format is the last 1or 2 digits represents the LSA.
The last 2 digits are 12 which is 112 LSA.
A lot of cam companies use this same format.

Just guessing but Crane had a habit of adding 12 degrees for an exhaust duration on the inline six cams. Looking in the Crane lobe profile catalog that would be the 226/305 lobe in the same CCH2 series.
