The benefit of a stick crank is the weight. Weighs almost 40lbs lighter then a forged one.

thats why i want to keep it, for the NA/nitrous build itll be sick and rev soooooo fast

reason i was asking about the stock crank is im trying to push my brother the do a Tork Tech build on his 04 lol

look at mmr's site. They do cryo treating to cranks. Makes them much stronger!

if you're not gonna want more than say 600hp, I dont see any issues with the stock scrank. get the mmr base piston/rod kit which is like 700 i believe and rated for 600. stock crank, king si bearings, get it balanced, and you'll come out with a nice shortblock for around 1200 if you can assemble it yourself. I was going to go this route but have a feeling once i make around 600hp, i'll want more after a year or so. haha.

ct, are you staying 2v or going 4v? Also, I see in your sig that you have a custom intake. Any pics?
