Nah, I look at it like this: if there's a higher than normal chance that it's going to be a pain in my butt, I'm not going to do it. There's a very high chance that a cast Eagle FE crank is going to break off at the front rod journal. Now, should I use that crank, upcharge for it, or should I avoid it altogether so I don't have to incur any damages, risks, or time setbacks?

I have a backlog of builds right now. It's just me doing it. Stopping everyone else's build because of a build with issues absolutely ruins my day.

Ok, so who's going to answer the question without trying to give me business tips?
