I saw the nose break off of a $3000 Winberg once, while working at a shop that built cup engines. I've also had my but handed to me by guys running scat cranks in their engines. I know this because the builder I used at that time used either Callies or Scat, depending on your budget, and built many engines in that class. I went Callies, of course, but I never saw a scat crank fail in the class I raced in, which was NASCAR asphalt late model. We turned around 7800 to 8000. I'd run a scat crank today to save some coin. The costs are out of control to keep it "American".
