Pixs of main and rod journals on my Bryant crank . I am assuming the scoop on the main journal hole is on the leading edge in the direction of rotation to help oil entering the passage to rod bearing , correct ? Been looking into the main saddle groove along with crank journal chamfer .

That IS what a well prepped crank SHOULD look like!

It looks like they polished the whole thing. Pics of Molodex cranks don't look that good and they are known to be very tough.
Its a nice crank, I would be proud to have it.
Scat 4340 is going to have to be good enough for me. If KK can push 1400-1500HP thought one that plenty strong.
But if someone would make a fully counter weighted forging for 1500$ I bet they would sell.
If Ohio made some Pontiac billets for 2K they would sell some. 1600 gets you a Hemi Ohio billet.

Why did you have it sent to Shaftech?
