I think they are both good manufacturers! Comp is a real recognizable brand and there are some fellas with the Vinci cam here and I think Vinci is a sponsor here! Either one should be a great choice. I was thinking I would go with Vinci whenever I'm ready for a cam!

you are correct

Crane's quality is very good.

I have the cam, rockers, springs and push rods.

Work great.

Either one you will be happy with.... I have a comp... But the hydraulic Cams dont go bad.... Im pretty sure they would be good to around 500000 miles.......

Just choose one step bigger than you want...... once the cam is in you will wish you went bigger....

I like Comps lobes better. More aggressive. Cranes lobe design is in between the XE-R and XE. Both make good cams but id stick with Comp
