450 to 500 hp 4 speed crank choice

The prices of those must have gone way up since I got mine if that's a true current price. I agree, if $3000 is what you have to spend on one, I'd use a stock forged crank instead for that HP range. IIRC, mine was about $600, but that was several years ago.


Are you sure you aren’t thinking that you bought a “forged” crank. Billet cranks like Crower, Calius, Oliver, etc have always been big dollar items. I lucked out and found a used Calias 4.5 stroke big block crank two years ago for 500.00 for a spare and grabbed it. The one in my 572 cost me 2300.00 plus shipping back in 2008.
