on a budget and had to buy an eagle crank for my 81 i wanted a scat9000 but summit and jegs didnt have the 3750 stroker crank for the 383 they only had the 6inch rod crank and i have 5.7 rods my rotating assembly is getting balanced is this a good crank for me its actually going to be a 385 .40 over:bowtie:

Eagle makes a quality crank, the only problems I have had, or know of is final machining / finish. I've hear that has improved although I've not messed with one for some time. Just spend the few $'s to have a good machinist mic every throw before you just assume it's 'right'. It probably 'is',,, but it's worth the effort and cost to know FOR SURE instead of having poor oil pressure and wondering why!

Check out www.cnc-motorsports.com. they'll have it and save you some bucks over Summit. Clint is a straight shooter, I've dealt with him several times in the past and he's always provided good stuff at great prices.

^^ what Marv said. Eagle is decent stuff for the money. Just check all of your dimensions.
Scat doesn't make an internally balanced 3.75" stroke/5.7" rod crankshaft. Eagle does. However, Scat does make an internal balanced 3.75" stroke/6" rod crank.
My 3.75" Eagle crank was pretty good except the mains and snout was a little small. It required half the shells to be .001" undersized to get the proper clearance. It also required a balancer that was on the small side as well to get the interference fit right. That was the biggest pain in the ass.

I run an eagle crank. I got a damn good deal on it I made sure to mic it and it miced out fine. I have never had a problem with eagles stuff personally but I have heard of it
