I have purchased a stroker kit with a Scat 9 360 4000 6123R crank. From my research this is a series 9000 crank, so a step above their stock replacement crankshaft. My build goal is 475 hp street and occasional strip use, with a 125 hp shot of nitrous at the strip. I know, a forged crank would be best but with limited parts available this is what I could find. My question is, has anybody out there broken a Scat 9000 cast crank? Hughes racing engines tell me they rarely see a broken crank. Probably the LA block is the weak link.
The RPM's will be modest as I am going to run a 3.55 sure grip. No sense in turning high RPM's in a stroker, IMO. This should help the crank live, methinks.
