"i wasnt riding it hard the first time ether,stator broke apart and locked up motor for a second,two days after getting that fixed first flywheel shifted. "
&nbsp\\;
FWIW,
&nbsp\\;
The flywheels twisted here, when the motor locked up.. It just took a couple days for the motor to eat itself up afterwards..

Darkhorse would be my option. They won't just jix it, they'll make the flywheels practically indestructable. They have a great rep...

I agree !&nbsp\\; Even aftermarket cranks have scissored under extreme loads.

Still willing to give you my old 06 crank if you pay shipping, you can have it fixed and welded, then swap the two out. Tried to PM you, but for some reason I cant send PM right now.

We have several 08 stroker cranks that are ready for prep as well. It would be a nice way to go to a 103,107 your choice. Just make sure you do the timken upgrade as well. You are in the lower end.

Hell - that's something I'd jump on - need to have mine done but would rather have a set to send out and not have to wait.&nbsp\\;

Anyone know who in CT does this sort of work?&nbsp\\; I have new ported/polished high flo heads, jugs, 10:1 pistons, 55g cams, 10 plate clutch and new pipe ready to install but want to do the crank at the same time.
