Don't get me wrong, if you are thinking about ever wanting to go faster than you should get the forged crank, always build a solid foundation first, than upgrade the top end later. I just wanted to say the cast cranks are not time bombs and are stronger than stock cast witch were better than most manufactures cast cranks.
I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!

I think much over 550hp. they are time bombs it's been proven several times right here on this board. and I'll keep my factory 360 crank over the chinese pieces any day.

All of them ???? Callies is domestic and from everything I read , will be far closer to right as shipped. B.R.C. ? Bryant ? I've only covered the first three letters of the alphabet and you have three nice choices. It does pay to shop around and do some homework.........especially when buying big ticket items.

I have no problem going up to the scat forged...just because its chinese doesnt mean jack to me...they check out good the way they are shipped from the research I am doing, and they are significantly cheaper than a comparable american made offerring...in fact, i thought callies forges overseas as well? dont quote me, i thought i read that somewhere though
