The Scat cast crank is a good piece. They are good for about 550hp and I doubt you'll be in that range with a 6 pack set up. Ryan did a pair of ede's for a friend they were supposed to go 285 in the 550 lift range, 11.7:1, .570ish lift roller and it made 499 with a 6 pack. With a 950hp and Victor it made 535hp.

The main girdle is a waste. Put a set of main studs in if you want or good bolts and run it. At 500 hp it absolutely unnecessary.

If you can buy the forged crank kit, using the discount, for the same as a regular priced cast crank set up, buy the forged kit, IMO. Get the Scat I beam rods if you can, they are a good choice for what you are doing and lighter than the H beams IIRC.

A good guy to call is Brian at Indio Motor Machine 760-347-5493. Straight forward, no bs type of guy that knows his stuff. He's been a mopar guy forever because his Dad is one as well.
