Also, what problems were you having with the crank from ohio crank? I've heard nothing but good about them in the past? A repeat NHRA and IHRA champ has told me that they are a very reputable company and that is why I went with them in the past.

I'm not tryin to be a hassle but I know that there are some people that just prefer certain companies.

i had a customer that only used ohio crank short blocks i did rebuild them and did just short block on his race engines with new ohio cranks i had some in the shop not alot 15 of them there are ok there not a crower or a callies magnum the last ohio i had had a bad crank finsh on the journals very wavy but did get used .i would of sent it back but customer wanted to race .i have seen stuff from scat to that had bad journals that look like the ground the journals with a loaded wheel and grove the journals and have sent them back. to all this stuff comes from the same place i have seen them just about all makes.i have had cats scats and ohios setting in the shop at the same time they are all the same forging. i have guys running fast with cats scat ohios elgin and many that just came in a no name box s they all did work or made them work . if you have the time and no money the cheaper cranks are ok they work but if you have money buy a crower or callies
