wtf first you both are morons and make no sense. I feel stupid for just reading your post. Second Crower Stuff kicks *** and it wouldn't idle rough like an american car if you got it tuned...we have tuner cars. So go tune it and make it purr. Crower makes good stuff they have been making parts forever so they are good at it. Personally all my engine internals are going to be crowers except the pistons which are je pistons....hope that helps you in some way...

Most of the Crower grinds available right now are copies of Jun, Toda, etc. Some people like their products, others despise them, because of their lift and duration combo's. Crower is local, and a lot of people in town are using, or have used their cams. The 402's seem to have decent results on most of the dyno's I've seen (all top end). There's two guys locally that have busted Crower cams on the dyno, that I know personally. But I've also heard of Jun's breaking as well. Seems like everyone around here is using Crower valvesprings/retainers without any problems.
