Scat put out this disclaimer on the breaking the nose crankshaft. http://www.scatcrankshafts.com/scatt...k_the_Nose.pdf Anyway. If my goal was a 427, then the LS7 would better choice. One reason is better resale than an LS3.

Actually what I said was that an engine builder who I trust uses them in his lower dollar builds and has no problems. They are not LS engines however, mostly big block Chevy's.
