Got my Crank for my 454LSX today.. Just got my Eagle 4.125 crank in today with there ESP Armor Finish in today..
also got a set of there 6.125 rod with the ESP Armor finish to
just waiting on my Wiseco Pistons to come in..... they should ship out tomorrow.....
should be up and running by the on the motor dyno in two weeks
have a few things to try out on the dyno
Using a set of LS3 heads.. Haven't seen many LS3 heads set ups on bigger motors? Guess I'll see what they can do compared to some of the other set ups out there.
Comp will be around 12:1:1

The said it reduces friction between the crank and bearings
in there testing they said they have freed up HP and TQ and reduced oil temps at the same time
also helps the rotating parts sheed oil off the parts reducing drag
This was there tests and two shops that sell there parts
I'll see how it works when i get the motor running..

Its funny when you hear everyone jumping on them, saying there just junk. But look in half the mags and all there shop motors have eagle parts in them.... check out any intake or head test mule motor and see whats in it, you'd be surprised
Iv had first hand experance with a few differant Cranks shafts. Unless your going to spend over 2,000 gran on a crank. You just picking what your use to. Its really depends on the engine builder...
