[Fot] cheap billet cranks

[Terry and Cindy]

Don't be too hasty to condem Chinese products. Its like saying anything
British or US made is junk. We all know there are good and bad.
The top-end Chinese stuff is excellent. They use certified steels and make
the parts on the same CNC machines we use in 1st world nations. 
One of their top end crank manufacturers supplies are large number of
well-known US & Australian performance  firms.  I've looked at their cranks
and rods (which use ARP fastners exclusively), and visually, they are to the
best you would find. I know people here using this firms cranks in 1000hp
nitrous fed drag engines, so they cant be that bad. Being in the engine
trade, we soon work out what is good and what is not. 
Having said all that, if billet cranks are around US$1000, its worth
investigating.
