Interesting post I have a 4" cast steel scat crank that's been sittin in the shop for a few years, every time I think about another build I think about using it but end up forkin out for a forged unit, some of the Chevy 400 block guys swear by these cast steel stroker cranks even @ 600+ hp turning 7k, I don't know if they are just lucky or crazy but I have not seen one fail, These engines are used for mud racing so the lack of traction may be a factor
