The crank came with Carrillo 6.200 rods, chevy pins... this stuff came with virgin R1 block I just bought. I'm trying to get everything cleaned up and then I'm planning on selling it all... I'll list the stuff soon when it's ready for sale

Bryant would be my guess, but most of the other manufactures including Bryant share the same shape on the leading edge of the counterweights. Winberg rounded and tapered profiles on their stuff.
