Bad news is Todd, I tried ordering more cranks yesterday and they told me they were out!! They also told me that the next batch would not be ready till early / mid March. Something to do with Chinese new year! Isn't that great.

Thanks,

Eagle sent like 150 Cranks out, the rotating assemblies got priority over people just ordering cranks. They were sent from the end of jan. to last monday. Some of the cranks with 4 inch stroke were defective. The keyway for the crank gear was cut too large for the LS1 keeper. They are suppose to be sending out new cranks that have the proper size keyway this week, but who knows how long it will really take them.

Thanks,
Wow Chris you have the contacts!

Callies for $1200 that sure sounds like a much better deal on a better crank than the Eagle.

Buy why would you assume they are better than the Eagle's?? Callies has proved poor quality workmanship on a few cranks already with the reluctor wheels.

Eagles have had zero failures on the ls1 cranks so far (because there is only have a few out!) but at least have some fact bad stories to tell before bashing them

Every one of eagles cranks comes with a certificate measuring the tolerance of the reluctor wheel. If it is more than 20 thousands out they dont sell them.
