    Yes; I have a lot of my guys using Crower.
    Mostly forged rather than billet.

    Few reasons:
    1. $$$$$$$$$$$
    2. good grainflow in a forging.
    3. $$$$$$$$$$
    "86 season we did a cost study the hard way...
    two diffrent motors that season, all alike, except,
    Name brand billet 74 runs, cracked.
    Crower forging 76 runs, still good.

    i had lousy luck with the crower forgings, never ran with one of thier billets. we never got more than forty runs on them. velasco billets seem to last much better for us

    I dont know if they make suitable applications for a TA/FC?, but, I have heard alot of good things about the Winberg cranks, I have spoken to alot of Pro Mod guys who seem to like the Bryant cranks

    I've been running bryant cranks, I've broken 2 of them. Not the cranks fault though. Rods exiting and killed a main on a block, but jsut thought for $1k less, the crower forging might be feasible.
