Crane grinds TPIS' cams for them... Or at least they did last I heard. We've done a lot of R&D for Crane and Cam Dynamics (Harvey Crane) in the past... I've got a damn good grind that works excellent for both stock displacement modified TPI's as well as strokers... In all honest I took a ZZ9 and played with it a little bit and had Crane grind what I came up with for me... Cam specs are as follows: 214/228 at .050" lift. .488"/.528" with 1.5 rockers on a 112 LSA. Very similar to the TPIS ZZ9 but with faster ramps. I see no reason on keeping my cam specs secret, so there they are. BTW: On a stock bottom end L98 with ported heads, 1.75" headers, and an Accel SuperRam this combination went 12.0's at 114 in my 90 Vette...

Darn, I was hooked on the Hotcam and its great price!
It is still not a $200 cam, but the LPE 211 cam is priced around 315 last time I looked, cheaper than $375. If you want to run high 12's get a aftermarket TPI or SR. A Miniram will want a larger rear end gear (more cost), than the SR/TPI which is just fine with 3.07's.
