100mm crank
Thinking about building a 2.3L, is an OEM crank better then an Eagle. Which do you prefer and/or have experience with and why? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

+1 for the K1 crank
I usually have one in stock but sold one last week. Will have another one on hand next week sometime if you want to come take a look at it. I will show you the differences between the K1 vs Eagle vs OEM.
Give me a call if your interested.

I have seen several EVO's die on the road course using the stock Mitsu crank...
The oiling and construction benefits of the K1 are far superior to the stock EVO crank, but if you're interested in only going fast straight than take Mikes advice - you only need to run that motor for -10 seconds and you take no turns, no lateral g's, etc...

Wouldn't that be a supply issue? I don't think simply blaming a stock crank not being able to hold up under lateral g force is nessisarily the answer, especially when the stock pump has been known to cavitate under heavy acceleration and deceleration alone. Can you elaborate on these oiling and construction benefits? The stock crank alone in these cars (4G63) are very strong, and have been known to handle 1000hp. Some of this can be attributed to the nitride coating applied to the factory crank.
