I would follow the lead of RS Motors (not sure, off hand, what they use now)
They failed many of the Manleys & have moved on!
Edit: Heres a quote from Ronnie @ RS 2 weeks ago: " We switched to all billet or OEM for cranks under $1600. There are cranks out there in the $4k range"

It seems the english racing likes Eagle, and then moves to K-1, just based on their build options.
Yeah, youre right. Heres a paste of one of their build specs: Eagle 88mm Crank ( K1 Billet Crank available for additional $800 ) or they suggest the OEM on some builds
As if that is even possible to answer over the course of 8 years. It saw 8300 every time I ran it through the traps.
Zero wheel hop on launches - never ran slicks.
Mounts are 100% stock - as if that makes much of a difference.
I was thinking if you had stiffer mounts and wheel hop, it could transfer the shock during lunch. So now, I'm all out of ideas. 8 years on this block, but only 30,000 miles? Was this your weekend race/track car?

Not even so much so. Drove it to work on nice days. Went to car cruises. Track on occasion... maybe three times a summer.

Strange that it failed with such a light duty life. Maybe oil sat too long with blowby contaminants degrading it? How did you know to open up your oil pan to check?

Oil was changed once a year - roughly every 3,000 miles. Only ran Brad Penn 20-50 and pureone filters until they came out with the boss, then switched to BOSS
It has been using A LOT of oil for the last 5-6,000. One quart every 400 miles. Decided to save up and have it done.

What crank are you planning on replacing this with?
Also, how is this burning up oil?
