Is Crankshaft Specialist in Memphis any good?



They are no longer from what I was told he sniffed it up his nose ?? Mile High yes I've dealt with them for years thanks. CrankshaftInc in Berlin, Ct yes I deal with them too.

Around here all the machine shops send their crank grinding to Keller Motor Supply.

John Keller has been in business for quite some time and has a great reputation.




Yes I have Keller Thanks for contributing.

It's been a few years, but I've always used these guys for machine shop services. They did a nice job on a steel 340 crank for me; I don't know if they still do it in house or if they farm it out:

Is this just a marketing post ??

Do you need a crank ground or are you looking for sales leads ???

No its not just a marketing post it also helps people on moparts to find out where to take cranks, engines, etc, for rebuilding.

I didn't realize it was that hard to find one, both the napa stores here in the middle of no where have a machine shop, both with crank grinders and so far so good.

In Phoenix there's a guy advertising custom crank grinding called Kadrie's Kranks. I've spoken to him a couple of times about some odd jobs, never actually did any business with the guy. Anyone else ever visit or buy?

R.




I've seen his ad's on the Phx. Craigslist, many many times no I did not use him.

Chucks Speed Center took care of mine but they send them out to another local machinist. Used to have the machine but it was too much hassle the shop manager told me.
They did all the other block and head work in-house. Tim did most of it

Why not be more upfront about it ??

Most think your intentions were to find a crank grinder, not for sales leads....

Whats next here...you gonna ask if anyone knows any well-to-do senior citizens that you can call on for a can't miss investment opportunity ?

Tim Tucker at W.C. Scarborough's engine rebuilding in Bishopville, SC, turns cranks. Does VERY nice work too...he's a perfectionist. Some of the cup teams from around Charlotte send him cranks to grind. I've seen several cranks from DEI in there.

Your real funny, there I kept it nice.
Now go away and think about what you can do to contribute to this board instead of trying to get a reaction out of people and myself.
This is the question and answer section. My original post states Who is grinding crankshafts in your area, I did not say I was looking to get a crankshaft ground. You stated most think my intentions were to try to get one ground, you must be the most thinks part of it as people are doing what I asked for by contributing info as to who is grinding cranks in there area.

Well, I guess it's just me, but looking for sales leads here seems kinda tacky, especially when he's not upfront about it. From the replies, I think most guys are steering him to a good crank grinder, not giving out info on who to call on for sales.

Just what is it you think Martin is trying to sell?

We were all at his place this week end and it doesn't look to me like he needs to troll around scrounging up work.

From reading I know he sells abrasives and kind figured he was looking for leads before your post, so what. I'm happy to help.
