    I stock new Velasco cranks in most popular strokes.

    3.750, 4.150, 4.250, 4.375, and 4.5.

    These are on the shelf, and can be balanced to your bob weight usually in 24 hours, and shipped.

    Bob Newberry uses Velasco, as do many other top running alcohol cars.

    Call me if I can help. 626 815-8815 PST.

    Visa and Mastercard.

    cranks

    John,
    We have had excellent service out of Winberg cranks. Lightweight, excellent heat treating, and great customer service.
    Good luck,
    Marty

    Best Crank!

    Bryant, Winberg, Valasco, hmmmmmmm, somebody please tell me which is the best.

    Oh, by the way, Ford or Chevy,.............. hmmmmm, which is the best?

    All of the "better quality" products can stand up to the others on the track. Kinda like Ford or Chevy, ........ which do "you" prefer!:)

    I have a Bryant in mine, ....... because I "wanted one"!:D

    Winberg Micro Polish.

    WInberg is touting a 1 Um Finish. Has anyone used this option?

    What are the Pro's and Con's

    Thanks

    We've actually done a lot of work for a lot of engine builders when it comes to the cranks. Between cryo treating and REM polishing/vibing, the REM makes the most notable difference. Roundy Round drivers love it because the oil doesn't stick to the non-bearing surfaces, freeing up a few horses from oil windage. It does make a difference.

    Both winberg and bryant make EXCELLENT cranks. Either one would be a worthwhile investment.
