So it is a crane CRN-169621. thank you so much fixxxer....

So what can someone tell me about this cam? Is it pretty mild, somewhat aggressive? I had stock 525sc's and now am going to 502's with these crane cams in there..... just wondering how its idle is going to compare to my stock 525sc's.... thanks!

That is a pretty good cam for what you're doing. Its very close in specs to a Crane 731 that people post about. I would not change it.

A 731 is .587/.610 226/236 on a 112 lob sep. I ran a 731 in my 525SC. I gained about 100rpms just with the cam change over the stock 525SC cam.

How does this compare to the 741 for use in a 500EFI, is it worth the money to change to the 741 or leave the stock 500EFI cam in?

The 741 is .610/.632 236/244 112 lob sep.

Not a huge difference in them. If thats all you are thinking about doing, then I would just leave the stock one.

Its the same as 525EFI cam except the 525EFI cam is ground on 114 lob sep.

Plan on upgrading to aluminum heads and ECU reprogram also. Just wondering if the 741 would make much difference over the stock cam?

Thanks, Steve
