Looking for opinions on cranks

[.]

I'm looking to buy a very bulletproof stock style crank and was wondering where I should go looking.

 

I want the best bearings, connecting rods, etc.

 

I know tz? has a 10 ball bearing that I've heard about around the way.

 

Just looking for everyones opinion on what I should go with. I'll be pushing somewhere around 70hp or so with my ported and meathead polished cylinders, and I really dont want to tear this engine apart for a long time after it gets put together.

Twister/crankworks ask about their billet cranks and hold on to your sack.

 

I would think a forged crank would hold 70 hp just fine contact jankab on here he does nice forged cranks :thumbsup:

Stock crank, TZ or maxload bearing on the PTO side, and have it trued and welded by someone who knows what they are doing.

 

The Maxload bearing I had in my 4 mil cub was awesome and cheaper than a TZ...and SoCallinit still has my old motor and crank, still going fine. The Maxload Jeff @ FAST gets is a nice bearing.

 

Stock cranks are very strong if welded...they'll push 90 to 100HP all day long on a drag bike IF it is in tune and getting enough fuel/oil....

 

I second Mike....Jankab does nice work...on your stock crank or he can build you one.

Hotrods cranks are fine. re weld them and throw a maxload on the PTO side ....by far the best bang for your buck...

 

once you start getting into the big monsters start looking to twister crankworks... for a stock to 10mil they are over kill

yeah, billet flashed into my head for a brief second, I started to drool, and then snapped into reality
