I cracked my Eagle crank...
I pulled the motor on the valiant yesterday and got the bottom end apart to find out there is a crack on the crank. I was wondering what that noise was! This crack was induced by my convertor that was all jacked up, J&W Racing had welded the convertor hub off center, and I cracked the hub, sent it back to them for repairs not knowing exactly what the problem was at the time. When I got the convertor back for the second time, it all went back together and the hub cracked again. I was fed up with J&W Racing so I sent the convertor to Performance Torque Convertor. PTC are the ones that identified the problem. Well soon after the stroker developed a knock, I had assumed the vibrations had wiped out a main bearing, no big deal, I can fix that. But now the crank is cracked on the journal where number 7 and 8 connect, now its a big deal, cant fix that!
Eagle CAST 4 crank, soon to be a forged unit!
Pictures soon
