I don't have the Crane #, but I have used that cam in all the motors that I have done with great results.

The original OEM cam was made by Melling. It is still available as the Melling 068 cam. Available at any Advance, Autozone, Carquest, etc.

Melling part number SPC-7. Not a "clone", but as Jerry says, the "real deal".
