Thread: retro cam information crane zip510

Tweet

Hey all!
finally am getting enough time to put together an old smallblock thats been languishing in the far corner of the shed for over 20 years. My problem is that although the internals look brand new I have no info on the camshaft!
Its a Crane Cam from the early 70,s branded as a ZIP510 I am pretty sure its .510 lift but would appreciate if anybody has more info like duration and centerline and such, BTW the crane website uses grind number so its pretty useless to me at this stage. any help is welcome thanks all

i have a old crane book never seen that will look this week end or try calling crane on this but they did have the hi low pops? cams

yep that name stands out from my youngster days High Low No Pop, wasa crane design and not a anti drug anti drinking slogan!! Thanks for dusting off the old catalog and squinting into those yellowed pages!!

i will see what i can find out

This guy still runs that cam, call him up and see if he has the specs. I think these are guys who used to work for Harvey Crane and they are paying tribute to him. See the last sentence in this message.

Really enjoyed your website! You are a true pioneer and one heck of a survivor! Ilearned a whole lot of stuff that was hush hush beforehand. Always was fond of your profiles and happy to say that I still run a zip510 in my small block chevy!
