If you do use a g4cs crank GET IT CHECKED OUT! Inspect it and magnaflux it, if its good then polish it and toss it in.
That's another good point. It seems like some of the cranks are nitrided and some aren't. I have already sourced a virgin G4CS crank that I'll be hopefully getting in a few weeks. No idea if it's hardened or not. When I get it, I plan on just bringing it to one of the shops, and letting them check it out as I don't really have the tools, or skillzz, to say if it's good or not.

I was considering one of those Eagle cranks, but I heard they are often a bit off, right out of the box. Not interested in throwing that kind of money on a brand new crank, just to have it need some machining on it from the get go.


Thanks for the input everyone. I think I'm going to go for it, and just slowly start acquiring parts. If anyone has any stroker pistons, that are atleast 30 over, for sale, let me know!
