Many apologies for any offence I may have caused using Tony as a reference for my thread!
It was a bad attempt at 'nonsense thread writing' and was very badly received, as expected.
It was a poor effort at a 'misconstrued opening', to a thread on cast crankshafts.
Yes there are many threads on Cast 318LA cranks and most folks know they started in 1967.
I have owned may 318 cars and engines from the pre 70 era, and none had a steel crank.
I have also rebuilt many 318's in my long career at a specialist V8 machine shop, and never seen a steel 318LA crank.
I don't believe they were all removed during oil-changes at the local PEP boys during their long and trouble free lives...
I suppose some folks have stripped many 318's too and always found steel cranks in their engines?
Please accept my full and unequivocal apology to Tony and his loyal supporters!
