Alan, I was really bummed to see the problem you had, and so close to Drag Week. I was really looking forward to following your new car through the week. It really did a number on your thrust face. I know it can be welded, but always figured everything would have to be trued back up and that it would be cost prohibitive on anything but an expensive steel crank. Never had one done though, so I hope I'm wrong about that. Hopefully you'll be back and ready next year, as I hope to be, provided they pick a better area
Yep, I'd go Scat. By the time you pay to have it welded, magged, ground, etc., I'd rather have a new crank.

I read on the 'net where guys were having some seal leak problems due to there not being any knurling but the posts were from 5-6 years ago. Do the current cranks have the knurling?
