I typed the message on my cell phone, which is not as easy for me, but my desk top was dead at the time. So I didn't elaborate.

My point was, be careful what parts you buy for a build. Not all parts are equal. I do think it may have only been FE cranks that actually broke in large numbers, but I wouldn't trust their products period, but that's me.

I do not state the company name because I do not trust my memory of which is which.

A good crank is a good crank the stroke does not matter and the engine family does not matter. Just be careful the parts you buy are all good parts.

My son purchased a camshaft from an online company for a dirt track SB Chevy. It arrived broken in two pieces. The box was undamaged. They sent him a new cam. It looked good. First race it broke at exactly the same spot the first cam was broken. Only this time is destroyed the entire engine, other than a few odd parts here and there. The company was happy to send him another cam, but they would not pay for the damage they caused. So he accepted the new cam and hung it on his garage wall to remind himself never to buy a cheap cam again.
