curbman68 OP enthusiast C Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 369 Chicago	I need some work done on my crank and the guy I have used before seems to no longer be in business (Precision Crank in Detroit) so I'm looking for someone else. The crank I have has a flat fueler type flange on the back and I need an indexing ring put on it for the flywheel. Any recommendations on who to use? 7104593-005.JPG (59 downloads)

Excellent! I did call Moldex, they said they are in the process of moving, won't be up and operating for a couple weeks. Anybody know what happened to Precision Crank and John Kaminsky, nice guy and excellent work.

It had all that stuff cut off it for some crazy circle track idea that didnt work, I made one for the kid when I was in college, and made it about a .002 press fit, and then we tig welded it in. As far as I know its still in the, more than likely blown up, but still in the crank. Dirby car....
