No, not at the moment. The crank will be boxed up and shipped out Monday for reluctor wheel swap (retro to 24x)... Call Chad Monday morning at 480-517-4969 and ask him to weigh it for you before he boxes it up...

No, I do not. Call Chad at 480-517-4969 Monday morning and see if he can get a part # off the crank before he boxes it up.

Get a hacksaw I'm sure you can have a machinist take an inch or two off the front of it and re-tap the threads.
