Yeah, kind of like someone who has some stock they paid $100 per share for and they don't want to sell it since it is now only worth $30 a share.

Those MP cranks were expensive and you feel bad for someone who paid $1800 and never used it. Now it is worth about $500 regardless of what they want for it.

Personally I'd just call up Molnar and buy a new crank with 2.200 rod journals and go build an engine. No reason at all to use the old crank with the big heavy rod pins and big heavy connecting rods. The 2.200 stuff works just fine and saves a bunch of weight and room.
