Moldex

Telephone number 313-561-7676

Fax 313-561-0724

The last one I purchased, earlier this year, cost $1650 and the leadtime 
was six to eight months. At that time I went through the same search you 
did. A couple of months ago a Moldex crank sold on eBay for about $2000.


Several other approaches are out there, involving various combinations of 
welding up the rear undercut radius, normalizing, nitriding, shot peening, 
ad nauseum.

Greg Solow on the west coast sells prepared cranks.
