Default New cam time?

If my recent problems mean time for new cam, what do y'all think of these? I heard Crane had some QC issues and I am not so sure I want to risk it, especially if it is the cause of my current trouble.

Its for a SBC 388 w/Dart 200cc heads, Revolution exhaust, Brodix dual plane HV1016. I ran Rhodes lifters and perhaps will again.

Old cam

I want the bigger one (60112) of course, but it may suck water. The crane had 10 degrees overlap, the 60111 has 8, the 60112 has 15. I am asking the same thing to Revolution.

Thanks

Sounds like a nice setup. What type of drive? What realistic rpm will the motor WOT at? I ask as there is no need for the larger 231/239 if you are only going to spin the motor 5200-5500rpms. You'll go faster with the 219/227 as it will make nice power in the 5200-5500rpm range. It should also be fine with your exhaust. The larger 231/239 will likely see reversion, it just depends how far back the water mixes with the exhaust on your setup.

Alpha drive. With the crane cam it topped out at about 5500-5600 RPM. I want to keep it in that area

Also look at the Comp XM276HR. 224/230 .503/.510 112+2

I'm running it in mine and it's pretty sweet. No reversion with my Glenwood manifolds and 16" long risers. Pulls hard to 5600rpms.
