Why I had asked was Dan Price had cast up some saddles a few years ago and still had a couple of sets the last I checked. I almost bought a set until I found a 5-main girdle to use.

Another crank to consider is the Hercules crank out of a forklift engine. I think the bore spacing was pretty much the same and it gave a ¼"(??) stroke. Are you gonna make your own billet rods?

I will probably make my rods out of 7075. I have made some in the past.
