Here's how I see it...( my opinion ) many of the Engine builders can't find good used stock Pontaic cranks, even when they do, they need work, 99% of the time they need turning...mag...balance. rod ends trun down to BBC, because 99% of the after market rods are sold with BBC rod ends. Are the Eagle cranks all bad...no!

Cliff R: I think has done a beautiful job on explaining his experiences with them.

Once they become a dealer for these Eagle cranks they can put a kool $200.00 bucks in their pockets and not even have to tuche them...Nice !when one fails they have a miillion excuse why...so it's either your fault or the guy building you engine. Are they all bad...no!...but which one did you get.

That's what you shoulda posted instead of getting off topic with vendor or company actions not relating to the application of the crankshaft itself
