THE cracked eagle crank with 150 miles on it from my engine!!!

Makes you wonder.....would this company REALLY go into a major deficit by just replacing the crank and not compromise their customer service ways of doing things?  I dunno....I'd just send out a new crank and bearings if it were me, and make sure I had a happy customer that would do business with me in the future.

  Yeah I don't get it. I'm glad I was able to find a stock steel crank with stock specs for $150.00. Don't think I'd buy from them.

Like I said before...X-ray is probably not the best method to determine the extent of damage on this crank.

Like I said, heat it up and oil oozes out of the crack.If I owned Eagle, I would want it back for inspection, fix the problem with the part and the customer, find a 440 and use that crank in it and wing it a couple times and see just really how good it is!

That is capillery action, the basis for a basic liquid penetrant test. 
And the defect you have there is a basic forging lap, a manufacturing defect if I ever saw one! It was likely peened over during the machining/finishing process.

I have to give that credit to the man building it now. And yes he is very smart and well known around Iowa. If you race and are into Mopars in Iowa, you would probably know him. I just want my car for local cruises and car shows. My builder wants me to take it to the track especially since it is only a half mile away and is a quarter mile track. I have no desire to but may take it out there and let him loose with it.

I`m getting some mad on other sites. Apparently I said something wrong to them in my email> I dunno... My car NEVER went to the track, my engine had 150 STREET miles on it, I use my car for cruises and car shows not trips to the track. It started knocking, I pulled the engine and found the crack in my EAGLE crankshaft. That is it. Simple huh? Their customer service sucks and are very rude.

Come on man, what was knocking?

HMMM

I was about too buy a stroker kit with an Eagle crank and rods I dont think so now
I dont need the BS

Eagle you just lost a customer!

The crankshaft was cracked and wobbling............... Throwing a balanced engine off balance= a knock..........
