All cranks need to be checked before the engine is built. I have run Eagles in numerous motors with no problems, and these have been 6000+ RPM engines. Running top dollar parts shouldn't be a reason to not go over all tolerances and clearances with a fine tooth comb, and that is the responsibilty of the engine builder. I have heard of problems with Lunati, Callies, and other cranks, but likely those problems are build problems rather than crank problems. If you trust your engine builder as being competent then spend the extra money on heads or something that will give you a few more HP. Just my .02!

$2300 should be a price for a complete assy. including bearings and balancing. If that is just for the crank, rods, and pistons he is high as B4 more has mentioned.

It is going to be a mild 540 about 580hp, will I be alright with the Eagle crank?
I had real bad luck with eagle !!!! Broke the crankshaft right in half !!!!

Bulletproof is Billet !!!! Scat or Crower !!

And its not about the HP or Tourqe it was because of 6 footers running at 75-80 !!

Would not use eagle anymore unless in a 300 HP fishboat.
