way to much money lol. go find yourself a 2.4 crank yourself out of the junk yard for like $100, then but 2.3 pistons and the regular 2.0 rods and bearings... bam less then a G-note I bet.

The stock 2.4 cranks are forged and better then the eagle cranks.

I love picking apart Ebay adds

I mean if someone is selling something that expensive, go through it twice and make sure that there isn't any typos

No matter if they're $5 or $5000, you'd never see it.

funny you mention that cause a random kid just had me install a full stage 3 slowboy 2.3 in his 2g. The slowboy motor had been sitting out of the car and in various garages, never installed in mint condition for years before someone knew what it was. Damn that was a nice engine. I hate slowboy but damn that was a nice longblock

Thanks for the referral jerk ;)

OP: We can get you set up with that same kit for cheaper, or we can set you up with a polished / balanced OEM 2.4l crank and save you even more, just let me know!

Just a footnote. Even though I'd much rather buy this kit from MAP because they'll treat you right and they're local, the company selling that on Ebay has been in the DSM game longer than most any vendor left. I have one of their "catalogs" of DSM parts in stages from 1995. Back then I only remember Boosher, Extreme, Alamo and Archer Bros, I think RRE was around then as well.

Agreed, we sell on eBay also. Just because something is being sold on eBay doesn't mean its complete garbage, its simply a venue for advertising goods :)

I didn't know Alamo was so close to me.
