Also had counterweights that were too big (hit pistons), tapered rod journal that just barely went under the low number by 1/10th and a pilot bushing hole that was an odd size and wouldn't fit any known pilot bushing I've ever seen. This was the 2nd crank they tried to send me as the first was screwed up when they tried to machine it. Then the joker from their problems department bounced me around before his boss finally told him to just send me a new crankshaft. That I gave away. The eagle 440 4.150 stroke crankshaft also had too tall of counterweights. I think their QC sucks and I won't send them any of my money unless there's nobody else that makes what I need. I want to look at the Ohio crankshaft stuff for chryslers but I already bought a Scat crank for my 408. It's beautiful.

Here's a pic of the Eagle crank from my 416, that I disassembled last Sunday. Looks like a twin of yours... Luckily, there's no other damage. I'm looking for a replacement, preferably not an Eagle this time. 7826081-Crank.jpg (161 downloads)

I'm kind of surprised that they haven't tried to re-design their cast cranks so this stops happening. They obviously don't care about their name or quality of their product once your money is in their wallet. Photobucket sucks
