I have three aftermarket cast iron blocks that I'm sending to cryo because, in part, I want them a little harder. I do have to weld two of them. Cryo strengthen not only the weld, but the transition between the weld and base material. It also stress relieves the part.
I have a set a pistons that I need profiled for a new chamber. I don't expect much material to be removed from the dome, but nevertheless will send them to cryo for good measure.
The bottom line: Cryo works. I wouldn't think twice about doing a crank, but don't know if I'd do a set of rods. I also wouldn't hesitate to do a set of rockers.
300 Below charges by the pound.

We found the same thing with cryo heads. The cleaned up better and held up better with alot of nitrous
