Very good pieces for the money. I have been dealing with them almost since day one of the old K1 days, and have always liked their stuff. They are a good value, and I use and sell them with confidence...

This , if a person can only afford a CCJ crank then this is the Crank to buy , unlike many others , this one is ready to run, and if it's not you won't get a song and dance or told to scrape bearings to make it work .

Tom Molnar started/owned K1. He then sold it to Carrillo, and started Molnar Technologies.
Before K1 Tom ran Oliver, when he left there, they stopped building crankshafts. You will not find a better crank for the money or better customer service than Molnar Tech.
never had an issue with Toms products. I run them in my Gen 3 Super Stocker and have had zero issues. Very Knowledgeable and friendly on the phone.

I have over 5,500 street miles and 100's of 1/4 mile passes on my 4.25 BB Molnar crank and 7.1" rods. My machinist sees a lot of different brands and was very impressed with the quality. Crank and rods needed NOTHING (he's picky, too!) and everything balanced easily.

Pump gas, n/a, through the mufflers on street tires with 3.54's. 3,600 lbs.
10.01 @ 133mph with a 250 shot of nitrous an a splash of race gas. 1.36 60 ft. 3,700 lbs.

That's good to hear because I couldn't resist cyber Monday deals and ordered a crankshaft from Mancini
71 demon stock stroke 440/indy ez-1 running 10.10 @ 132.14 mph in the 1/4 and 6.36 @ 107.46 mph in the 1/8 not in the same weekend but It did it then I sold it.

While I have not purchased a crank from Molnar I have purchased a couple of sets of rods.
I have great respect for Tom Molnar and would not hesitate to buy anything that he sells.
He is a stand up guy for sure...and a dog lover which makes him excellent in my book

I hear the molnar cranks are made in china... I think there are only a few companies today whose crankshaft forgings DON'T come from China, and those places don't sell BBM cranks for much under $2K, IIRC.
