Default FE Parts

We have used Valasco billet cranks as well as Scat and LA Ent. I have no problems with any of these cranks since they are way over kill for these engines but a lot better than the cast steel cranks. We currently have in stock Scat billet 4.250 and 4.375 cranks with 4 lightening holes and gun drilled. These cranks are 2295.00. The last Valasco cranks I ordered like this were 2595.00 because of the extra options we get with our cranks. The way we do our cranks they are about 6 pounds lighter than the standard billet cranks most people order.
As far as heads go no body can touch our CNC heads for the price, performance and parts used. We can help you with any part you may need and keep a lot of parts in stock as well.
We even have Shelby blocks available right now but that will not be for long. Just think Shelby blocks, billet cranks, CNC heads, Armondo oil pans, Erson and T&D rockers, Eagle, Scat or Oliver 6.700 rods, Edelbrock Performer RPM and Victor intakes and all of this in stock and no waiting.
When you want to get serious we are one phone call away. Thanks Keith Craft

Excuse me, Keith, but you may have overlooked the post where need4speed noted that he already had an engine builder.

Jamo I did not miss the post where the gentleman already has an engine builder. I sell parts to other engine buildes all the time and their customers. A lot of engine builders do not keep parts on hand and do not want to tie up there money in inventory. I was just letting the gentleman know that we had parts on hand if he did not want to waite. I receive calls from customers that have engine builders every day and sell them parts for their build up along with advice. Do you see a problem with trying to help someone get the most for the money. Thanks Keith Craft

Thanks for the clarification, Keith. Folks might be interested in the fact you will sell just parts.

Back to the discussion...

Jamo,
how much for your crank and perhaps a piston or two?

Not in that business, Chappie.

However, maybe you and I can sell individual words or sentences.

I'll do you one better, I'll sell you the alphabet. From there, your options are limitless.
