Would that constitute" crossbreeding of parts"or since the stock basic configuration of the generic 327 is maintained, would it retain legality?It's not like somebody put Oldsmobile rods in their Chevy, Chevy valves in their Ford,or some thing like that. Travis, are you out there?

Greg, From this discription this crank will not be legal in stock. This crank came from factory with large main and rod journals, someone has turned the rod journal .100 ( hundred thou ) to make it a small journal... Luke
