Nitrate cranks
How many shops recommend and do it ,Esp to Eagle and Scat cranks.
how can you tell if it has been done , It was recommended to me to do Eagle cranks and Scat cranks, because they are a soft metal and this will help bearing life Thanks Rob |

Nitriding is a surface hardening treatment. I don't believe that it will improve bearing life but it can reduce crank journal wear the same as hard chroming does. I think it is a personal choice thing. I have my cranks cryogenically treated to improve crank life.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
