Crankshaft questions
The only Cola crank I saw in there is a 4" stroke for $700. Sure a 396 sounds great, but that's alot more money than the Scat cast crank that people in this thread are saying should be fine.
Also that ad lists the pistons as standard bore - 4.125", but LT1's are 4" bore. I don't imagine that his 4 bolt block is one of the few rare siamesed bore LT1 blocks that got released? If so it would be over 2K for just the block.

Stock crank or forged crank. Period.
The only way I would put one of those aftermarket cast cranks in an engine is if the rest of the engine was already a piece of junk and I wasn't concerned about how much life I got out of it.
