The 3.0 stroker was a custom SCAT crankshaft. I called them a year or so back when I was doing my rebuild to see if they would still build one. 4500 bucks was a bit high for me  :yikes: .... Di-spite the potential of a forged billet balanced crank...  :hump:

For 4500 I can almost drop a corvette engine in there....

Yea I was kinda surprised, especially since SCAT supposedly had built them before, it was for the SCORE and ARCA desert racing in the early 90's.
