Helps on oil cooling. Do I get cross thread points? That is serious carnage though.

“I second reworking your crank than putting in an unknown condition inferior crank.”

Sounds like marriage advice to the woman…(I crack myself up and will let myself out)

If at this point the crank does need work why not just stroke it with an S&S????

This.

Reaper (2005 Night Train) developed a rod knock after over 217,000 miles on her original, unopened, bottom end last October. When she comes out of winter hibernation, she'll be sporting a 107ci engine with an S&S stroker crank, and Timken bearing upgrade. Once you have to split the cases, you may as well go all in, IMHO.

Cheers!
