Funny how one thing leads to another. After I sold you the crank, I started thinking about supercharging my car again and finally pulled the trigger. The irony is I thought I had a line on an inexpensive 4.00" stroke billet, but it turns out I have to order one new at full price from Crower. Anyway, the 4.25" crank wouldn't have worked--I need the 4.00" stroke to get compression down to a level I'm comfortable with for a Roots-blown alky combination and 8500 RPM.
