canadians custom crank?

[geoffinbc]

Agreed JBP is a complete joke.

Find a used 3500 crank and have a local shop offset grind it to make a stroker. If your not using DIS then you don't need to worry about the reluctor wheel. Or you can leave the internal one alone and install an external one. Or you can do what is shown above. You will need to work out your piston choice and rod length after you have calculated your deck height and final stroke.

If your looking to build a bullet proof bottom end, the steel 3500 crank is cheap, capable of being offset ground and more than capable of supporting anything that you throw at it. Hell, I think that the block would blow-out before you managed to break that crank.

I had mine fitted with a 7x timing ring. Mark (CNCguy) has a couple left after completing mine (still got to drop it off at the shop for knife-edge and final balance)




Also, If you want forged rods, then do what I did. Pick yourself up a set of H-beam eagle "small-journal" SBC "327" rods (5.7in) and have the big end narrowed. (BTW marc can do that for ya too)

i bought piston off of them wait 8 months to get them and when i called to see what happen they
said they had no record of it

Besides the long wait and the price is the displacment factor or forged crank factor really nessesary for what we can put out? Basicly is it worth it?

i've never heard anything good about this place.

the stroker crank would be nice but do you want to take the chance that you may or may not get the part or have to put your project on hold for a year.

Last person I heard buy one had to wait like 6mo. to a year to get it.

Has any body bought or known someone whos bought the forged crank and rod combo from j-body performance. Rumors are that they are stroking the 3.4 to 3.8! this would be nice
