yea I know Brian quite well. I can have a crank made cheaper by him with a high speed oil system designed with a few other key features I want to incorporate into the design. We spoke mid last year about it when Kuah sent me his engine. Either way....the community is ramping very fast in the HP production arena and in order to keep our engines alive and running we need to fix this issue with the oil system. There is NO ISSUE with the size of the rod journal. Pro Stock teams use a Honda style journal just like we do and they make an obscene amout of power/tq with no issues. But they also have a high speed oil system with a bunch of other key features in their design. Its those designs I want to incorporate into our cranks to increase its output without sacrificing strength, and reliability.
