Hope you'll be up & running soon again, Eljaro.
When it comes to the broken crank, there are LOTS of reports on broken CAST Eagle cranks for the Fords. All brake at the exact same spot. It is quite clearly some fault in the casting process or the material used.
I have no idea if Eagle has adressed this problem or will do some kind of compensation for your loss.
It's kind of frustrating to see all the other parts beeing junked in such an accident & knowing that the fabricator of the faulty part causing the disaster not even will consider pay out on what this will cost to reapair or replace. Hopefully you will figure aout a deal with your enginebuilder.
As far as I know there has been very few problems with Eagles forged cranks. Some have reported on bearing journal taper or dowel being a little off, as I have found. The forged 302 stroker crank I'm using have been flawless.
I know what it means to live in Europe and beeing somewhat isolated. You don't have the ability to "stop by" your engine builder or speedshop to pick up some new goodies or show them the faulty parts you've been handed.....
