I dont care what kind of crank it is, I paid 2500 for mine and I still put a mic on it. the better your tolerances the less chance of problems my friend. check twice assemble once!
So I suppose the rod journals were just as bad,nice.. Good to know that no matter how good something is supposed to be,it really pays to check it out thoroughly first.
damn thats a piss poor grinding job .002 across that little bit of distance is insane, you would think that eagles grinders would have a probe to check the diameter across the land to check for taper, most cnc grinders do, or at least go thru some type of inspection to check the final diameters after all machining/polishing
holy crap .002 out of round thats piss poor for a grinding/polish job, i hope you called eagle to let them know, should be more like .0002, for as much as one of those cranks cost
what is the diff between internal and external balancing ?and how does it help in power #s? im looking to buy a crank kit and doing research to build the best bottom end i can.....
@seasonedtoker No, that is not "normal" in the sense that it is not properly machined. Goes to show why it is very important to check EVERYTHING before putting your parts together
Makes me think about my last engine rebuild? I never checked for this ! Good video thumbs up .

Now I know where to go if I ever need some performance maching. Bit of a drive from Green Bay but I think it would be worth it.

@cpmotors good thing the owner brought it in your shop. is it normal that the journals are that much off with out-of-the-factory items?

What model grinder is that? Looks like an old Storm Vulcan, very clean.

Its a 1958 Storm Vulcan 15, I just finished rebuilding/repainting it a while back. I wish my headstock started as smooth as yours.
