Message	:However nobody really has ever used and had it fail on them. So all of the conversation is and opinions are just pure speculation. There have been a few cases of the stock crank breaking at around 1000RWHP, if memory serves correctly. Offset grinding a V6 crank will weaken it because it decreases the amount of overlap between the rod and main journals.
