will it handle it?
and is it true l19bolt on esp rods are god for 1000hp?

The Scat cranks do need balanced. With the KB pistons they had to remove a bunch of weight because they are overbalanced. My machine shop said that this is typically just the opposite of Eagle cranks that they have to put a load of heavy metal mallory in them to get them to balance.

i work at Ray Barton racing engines and balancing cranks is what i do. I balance alot of scat cranks. I would definitly get a scat over an eagle crank. If plan on putting that much power with the nitrous definitly go with the 4340 forged crank. I or H beam rods with arp 2000 bolts. and set of diamond or je forged nitrous pistons. My personal 383 scat forged crank I had to take about 500 grams off of each end to balance it. get forged parts and spend the money for a good balance job
