Crane 12 does not come in the RT engines. The cam the RT comes with is similar. If you do chose to upgrade to the 12 you are going to need valves and valve springs as your stockers are not going to last. I looked into doing it last year, but it was too much work/money + no where to work on car at the time so I bailed.

Except you don't need new valves, just valve springs and maybe retainers (personal preference as some say yes and some say no).

Do the stock retainers fail that easy?
