Marine Crankshafts, mild to wild on most any racing or stock cranks  David is the owner, he worked for Sonny Bryant, Bryant Racing Crankshafts, for many years before opening his own shop. His work ethics and quality control are outstanding in my humble opinion  I had a crankshaft that was hurt, Crower 4.25 stroke old top fuel crank with center counterweighrs and Mopar rod journal sizes. The motor broke number 1 rod and hurt that journal more than a little, I had him mag and then repair that journal as well as offset grind all the rod journals to 2.200 rod size and increase the stroke to 4.375 His shop is in Santa Ana, CA 714-549-2388

Don Kulash was going to send mine to someone in Effingham 3 years ago. I think you stopped into Don's machine shop in Granite.

Yes I agree and I have done business with them for years and sold many crank grinding wheels to them. Top notch business for sure.

This is who I have repair my bryant cranks. web pageThis place has been in business around here forever, although I don't recommend them. web page There's another shop I used for my street cars here in Delhi Ohio, suburb of Cincy. I can't think of his name as he flys under the radar. Matter of fact I'm pretty sure all the local shops around here use him to grind there cranks, maybe even Don's.

Yes Gary the guys at Bryant do very good work and they also supply many top fuel teams and Winberg Crank Denver supplies fuel teams as well.

I use Mark Schaefer at Belleville Automotive. Mark has lots of circle track experience as well as drag,street and stock applications. I am not sure if Mullins in Mt.Olive does cranks, but I know a lot of circle track people use their machine shop services. Sorry I can't make it to the reunion this year Martin, schedule conflict. Your efforts are genuinely appreciated.
But Hugh you knew about the date a year in advance  Cancel and come out. Mark is a bit of an irrogrant butt head and Chad Mullins doesn't do cranks.

Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.
