Mudge Posted December 26, 2002 Share Posted December 26, 2002 I order from Jason alot, he is one of the most well known discount dealers, it should be $459, call him. I know someone that just got it about 2 months ago from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudge Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 Are you kidding? I've seen it for about $659!

danc Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 80Lt1: I installed an Lt-4 Hot Cam kit in my Fastburn 385 this year. I paid $522.83 for the Cam Kit (part# 12480002) consisting of Cam, Rocker arms, valve springs, caps, keys and shims. The Roller lifter Kit was $187.31 (part#12371042). Pretty cheap parts considering the potential 40+ horsepower gain, and the extensive GM engineering behind the peice/parts kit. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
80LS1T Posted December 31, 2002 Author Share Posted December 31, 2002 Well since I have such an itchy trigger finger I bought the non self aligning roller rockers. But now I have choosen to just use the LT4 hotcam kit roller rockers. So now I have some brand new still in the box Crane Pro Magnum Non Self Aligning Roller Rockers for 7/16" studs for sale! I paid $299 for them but I will let them go for $245 +$12 shipping and Handling and $3 for insurance. Let me know if you are interested at ggrenfell18@yahoo.com Thanks Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudge Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 You could always keep the 7/16" setup and sell your Crane's that come with the kit for 3/8" studs, but thats up to you obviously Stock are good 'nuf, but I got the Comp R lifters for endurance stuff + the fact that my stockers were 114k miles old.

John Scott Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Another set of screw in studs 3/8 or 7/16 is cheap compared to rockers. Jegs has them for about $20-40. Also, when changing cams, rocker ratios, heads, its a good idea to use a pushrod length checker to verify the length you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudge Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 If my post was unclear (not sure what you meant), the Cranes that come with the Hotcam kit are for 3/8" studs, ARP 7/16" are something like $30, and I like the extra insurance, no stud girdle though but I also would have liked one. I have also heard of needle bearings freezing on the Cranes, even though they work great for some people, but I haven't heard anything bad yet about the Comp Cams stuff, and they are rebuildable FWIW.

80LS1T Posted January 1, 2003 Author Share Posted January 1, 2003 So I could buy the kit use the Non self aligning roller rocker that I have with guide plates and new studs and sell the self aligning ones with the kit? Is that what you mean Mudge??? Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
