[QUOTE="SRBCitrusCobra17, post: 16603260, member: 199944"] Thanks for the feedback. Great info. The engine work was done back in 2007; stroker kit, .020 bore, cams, pretty much the works for $8k. The stroker kit alone was $2k. So it lasted 14 years before it hit the ice berg. I did speak to an Eagle rep to discuss the damage and options. They also mentioned using the ARP bolts which I am not sure was done during the rebuild. The other thing they mentioned is they could match the crank based on the serial number with the one I have. Intuitively to me you would think it would be very difficult to damage threads on forged steel, evidently not. The one part I do not like about the crank is the recessed key. Seems to me it should go all the way to the end, especially on something that can handle over 1000hp. You can see how it wore into the slot on the HB that fell off (stock damaged HB, pic below). This easily slid back onto the crank shaft with quite a bit of radial slop, which I am wondering was a contributing factor. I should also mention that the set up on this was the Metco pully for the SC and Alt. The stock pully fell apart several years ago and this seemed like a good option at the time. Thanks again.
