steel or cast crank for Stock Eliminator?

09-17-2008, 05:30 PM

Putting together a GT/C '94 Camaro with a Jerico for IHRA Stock Eliminator ('71 LT1 350/330). Would you recommend running a cast crank? Solid lift cam should pull to 7,000 rpm. If not, should I just by-pass trying to find a GM steel piece and go aftermarket? If so anyone recommend a particular brand that they have had luck with or one that I should stay away from? I've heard the cast is lighter than the forged but was wondering if it would live behind a 4-speed.

Thanks for the help!
