Jerry Van Vlack did some additional research with the billet crank supplier
in Charlotte (Kowi Automotive) that FOT has recently discussed.  The e-mail
info below is from owner Juan Kotwica regarding quantity purchase price and
options.

I wrote to them and here is what they said. I might be interested if a deal
could be put together quickly. I’m crazy for thinking of doing this for a
street car but it would be fun to have a sleeper. My car is already 87mm, D
cam, 100 thousands off the head and lightweight flywheel so a bit warm
already.
Lets stay in touch.

Hello Jerry,
               Yes, for some quantity the amount change. In the case of the
crankshaft the amount change for 3 cranks (USD 1950 each) and for 5 cranks
(USD 1755 each). I'm able to admit in the order (to reach the quantity)
different specifications (different strokes, rod journal sizes, etc.).
               About the connecting rods, the amount change for 5 sets; you
can count on USD 790 per set.
               Let me know your thoughts and if there is anything from side
that I can do to help you.
               I also take this opportunity to let you know that we can
supply you forged pistons (with the respective sample) and engine bearings
(even with antifriction coating); and trimetallic alternatives (we can
change the rod journal dimension a little bit to use a more modern rod
bearing)
All the best

Thank You for your quick response, If a group purchase could be arranged
would there be a price reduction? If yes what quantity would you need and
what would the price be?
There may be more owners interested.
Thanks
