MG TD TF 1500 - I didn't know! Crane Cams

Reading through the archives, I ran across an article on Crane and it said they laid all their employees off and went out of business back around November 2009. I never knew that! I must have been on the road somewhere during the broadcasts. I never listen to the radio in the car anyway. Sometimes I would be away for a couple weeks at a time. What a loss! I guess Crane cams are collector items now. PJ

From what I understood at the time, the employees bought the company and resumed production.

S&S bought Crane, they are the aftermarket Harley Davidson parts company. Chase Knight @ Crane has helped me develop my Roller cam kit; they have not been able to produce my cams, as they are still slowly getting back into the business.
