Call Lunati down in Olive Branch. I'm sure they'll cut anything you want.:D

Superman crank man on Tillman near Broad. They turned my caddy crank into a stroker crank.


Welcome to CK5. I see you are in Memphis. I am about an hour north in Brighton.

Thanks, I will have to call them, any chance you still have a phone #, I didn't see a listing for them in the book. If anyone cares I called lunati and comp and neither turns crank shafts.

I'm takin' my shortblock to Dois at NAPA on Brooks Rd. They have a full machine shop and he's been doin' the machine work forever. Or, you could try BB&T racing on Stateline Road.

Most machine shops farm out the crank work.


Sandy Walker might turn cranks, but I can't remember.

I don't know if they turn cranks, but I have been hearing lots of good things about these guys:



Marion Performance
5255 State Highway 77
Marion, AR 72364
870.739.1773


& this place has a good machine shop from what I hear. They are in Southhaven, http://www.bbandtracing.com/. I know for fact they have an awesome Dyno & the guy running it is a tuning son of a gun.
