Default Which crank and rods?? Turbo app(1200-1500hp)

Looking for a 4" crank and some 6.125" rods for a turbo application that can handle 1200-1500hp and 20-30 pounds of boost. Max RPM should be around 6800-7200.

Lunati Pro-billet should be able to handle it no problem. You could also get into the high end stuff like Carrilio etc.... but price will jump alot.

Can't remember the company off hand, but they were talked about a while back. Search didn't yield much. I remeber them being BIG $$$ though. Roughly $3g's I believe. Maybe someone will chime in.

Look at Lunati, Callies, Carrillo, and Oliver. They sell stuff that will hold up.

$3k for a crank sounds like Molodex billets. Nice crankshafts if you wish to spend the coin.
