Default Callies cranks

Where is the best place to get a forged Callies crank for a LS6? Also which one would you suggest for a +/- 500 rwhp street car with a 200 shot, the dragonslayer or the racemaster?

If its a stock cubic inch motor, then the stock crank should be used.

I agree, stock crank is very safe to at least 700rwhp, with many people going beyond that.

It is a stock displacement but everything else is forged so why use a stock crank and take a chance.

Seeing as stock cranks have taken upwards of 1000+RWHP and there has not been a single failure to date, I see no reason to buy an aftermarket version.
