Speedomotive nodular crank, not impressed...

Just as a warning to anyone interested in buying a nodular crank... I just received my Speedomotive nodular crank ($215 shipped) and Im definitly not impressed by the quality. The oil holes in the journals are poorly chamfered, the the drilling on the rod throws isnt chamfered properly, and Ive found a lot of burrs that needed to be removed. If I had simply dropped this crank in (bad idea anyway but...), it could have cost me the engine. Im not sure if its going to be difficult to balance yet, but for anyone interested in cast nodular cranks, Id go elsewhere.
