LOL, you can easily spend 40k but remember not everything that glitters is not gold. I have gone back and forth on what is needed versus wants. If you want to rev in the 8k range a billet crank would be optional. That crank is 3k and a 6 month wait. More than likely something else is going fail before the crank. Let's face it when you jump to doing a high performance build all bets are off as a $15 part can cause and often does cause catastrophic failure. So with kiss and a prayer we venture were few dare.

It doesn't have to be a $15.00 part. I've seen a #6 screw take a motor out.

Case in point, we lost a space shuttle to a $2.50 O ring!

Gov't o-ring? Better add some zero's behind your numbers.
