Since we been discussing Asian parts and tools: I saw these cranks for sale, less money than I would have figured. By the time you bought a decent Mercury crankshaft and had it ground, might be about the same money. These have been discussed here before, I haven't found the relevant posts yet, though. For example, GaryGosfast, I remember he liked the Eagle or the Scat one or the other, but not both of em. Any thoughts from anyone?

Also, do these go okay with original 8BA rods? Just wondering, not spending any money yet. Thanks!
